I surprised Thandie, Peace and the Gentrys this past weekend. I flew into Kentucky with the Burtons. They were expecting the Burtons but were very surprised to see me.
Surprise #1
I surprised Brother Gentry late Saturday night when he arrived to check us into our rooms. After he had showed the Burtons to their rooms, I popped in from around the corner. He was so shocked, thankfully I didn't give him another heart attack.
I had thought Thandie would be with him and I wanted to make sure she saw the Burtons first so I hid on the property next to the church. My feet got stuck in the mud....or so I thought....later I was told that a septic tank had just been removed....so who knows what
I really stepped in....but I surely was stinky!
Surprise #2
Surprise #3
Peace came into the the foyer of the church after Sunday School and was greeting the Burtons with hugs, she saw me and let out a squeal, ran and jumped into my arms. She is such a doll.

Surprise #2I surprised Mrs. Gentry and Thandie by walking into their Women's Sunday School class just after it started. Mrs. Gentry saw me first and said "Chrissie!" Thandie turned around and just shook her head. I thought for sure she would have guess that I would have come with the Burtons. But it really was a surprise!

We had a nice visit. It was difficult for Thandie though, as she is preparing her heart and mind to leave America and return to Malawi. It was hard enough to say good-bye once (San Diego), but then we had to say good-bye again. Her stomach was "paining" pretty much the whole visit. Please pray for her, she begins her journey back to Malawi tomorrow (Thursday 4/5) at 4am.

Hey Chrissie; now I know where you were. I decided to go ahead with the procedure. I just wanna get it done...that way I don't have to go back and forth to the emergency room for pain and swelling. I would have to stay a few days in the hospital (some, if not all in the ICU) while the clot dissolves. There's a chance that they won't even be able to dissolve it...guess it depends on how "solid" that clot is. If that's the case, I'll go home the same day. Just pray that they'll be able to dissolve it.
