"Keeping up with Joe"

This site is to keep everyone updated about Joe's health and treatment. He is being treated at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. The stage 4 cancer is in his stomach and extending into the esophagus. God has been so good to Joe, giving him the sweet Holy Ghost, keeping him healthy, with no sickness, no weight loss and no weakness. The surgeon says that he is a prime candidate for surgery after the chemo. Keep them in your prayers as they are counting on God to bring him through.

Across the Miles
recorded by IIIrd Tyme Outall

Around this world I've traveled
Through it all I’ve come to find
Ties that bind can come unraveled
I’ve had to face some lonely times
But when I’m tired and feeling low
Oh what a comfort it is to know

Across the miles
There’s someone praying for me
Across the miles
There’s someone lifting my name
To the lord above in joy and pain
I can feel the love and see you smile
Across the miles

Life can be so complicated
Walking through it on your own
When kindred hearts are separated
It gives love a chance to grow
And even when I’m so far away
Oh, I’m reminded everyday

Across the miles
There’s someone praying for me
Across the miles
There’s someone lifting my name
To the lord above in joy and pain
I can feel the love
And see you smile across the miles

It's been quite a while since I've updated. The heat & humidity took its toll on Joe for a while leaving him with not much energy. Now he seems to be feeling better, eating well & has gained a little bit of weight (I think). We are thankful for our blessings...home, family, friends. We still want you to keep us in your prayers. Thank each & every one of you for caring for us. Joe & Sandra
