We are finally home. Yesterday the doctors gave Bethani the green light to go home! We are so excited and exhausted at the same time. The last 2 weeks have been long ones but we are grateful that the new anti rejection medication is working.
Thank you for all your prayers and thoughtful comments on the blog they have definitely ministered to us. God Bless you and yours during this Holiday season.
with much love,
Brian, Bethani, & Wyatt

Man, that is great news. We have been hanging on pins and needles, (or something like that) waitingfor an updated blog. Not that y'all haven't been waiting in a much more desperate state than all of us. What a joy to come to a home where you can be more of a family. God Bless and be with you. Let;s have a "Great 2008."
Love and Prayers,

Kim, David, the little ones, and I are sitting here just praising the Lord.

Welcome Home. Or something. now just because you are home doesn't mean you can start your horse back riding and quading just yet. still alot cold, and you aint taken enough of me calories and fat yet. stay inside, drink hot coco, coffee, have chocolate cake, and NO FRUITCAKE! not enough calories for you. brian, you will have to eat it and taste it. and ring in the new year with praises to God. But, no joining me and jana as we have a shoutdown. You need to save your energy in getting better, but you can wave the hankie!
love ya'll!

Heard the good news from Naomi yesterday. I'm so glad you are able to finally celebrate Christmas! Don't party too hard girl. We miss you guys and we can't wait to see you.

Do NOT go near fruitcake.
I've already elaborated on Jana's blog about my pending charges involving fruitcake, but let's just say that they're trying to two-strike me and offer me 25 years for "the incident."
Apparently, leaving a fruitcake on a neighbor's porch and then allegedly "leaving in an overtly hasty fashion" was enough to invoke national hate-crime statutes. Some rogue, amateur filmmaker caught it on film. And might I add that it easily added ten pounds to my frame. I thought I was pretty fit until I saw that. I think I might be making my own weather.
Anyway, Bethani. I'm glad you're back. I'll head over there after my arraignment.

This is great and exciting news... God is a prayer answering God...

Welcome Home!!! We love you all & will continue to pray for a speady healing. Remember to unwrap every day with thankfulness & joy for it is truly a gift from God. God loves you!
Nina - your ham recipe was a hit with my whole family this Christmas. Thank you for sharing. I know that "one" of your birthday wishes this year was that you would be home for your birthday. Well... I guess birthday wishes still do come true - What I do find hard to believe is that you actually blew out "ALL" of those candles. How many??? I know it was enough that we could see the flame all the way in Sacramento. Love you friend. :o)
Not therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.
1 Chronicles 29:13
STILL PRAYING...God bless.
Brian, Bethani and Wyatt, so glad to hear that your finally home! YOu all are continuously in our prayers! Thank God that the medication is working!! Well, hope you have a wonderful New Year with your son!
love you all!

Hi Brian and Bethani,
We just returned from a trip in our new RV; we hadn't taken it our since you stayed in it when you were here preaching. I saw the way Bethani folded the napkins on the little dinnette table. They were so fancy, and my thoughts went to you all. You have been through so much, but God is faithful. My daughter-in-law's (Annette) father also had a liver
transplant. He is on the anti rejection medicine also, and he is doing great. He is travelling, working for the Lord, and enjoying his family. I believe God will do this for you, too!
Love You,
The Ghilonis

Home Sweet Home! I am so glad to hear you are back home...it is a labor of love to get me to go to a hospital & I might venture to say the hospital doors are beginning to lose their LUSTER!! lol
Bethani - I hope you are feeling better, it hurt us all to hear of how sick you were going to get in order to get better.
Bro & Sis Bishop - We are praying for you to have peace in the middle of the storm.
Brian - If you EVER want to get away and take a break from reality for 30 min. - Hr. I would love to take you for coffee/soda. We can catch up and/or chill. Call me on my cell if you do (530) 949-7512.
