Genesis 2:7 (American Standard Version)
7 And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Alan and I have begun a journey of hope, trusting God who breathed the breath of life into each of us, to give Alan breath again through new lungs. We invite each of you, our friends and family, to travel this road with us. We greatly appreciate and need your love, prayers, support and encouragement.
We have been going to Duke Hospital University since January of this year. Alan has had almost 50 tests, we have met with psychologists, social workers, financial planners, a surgeon, and a pulmonologist. He goes back to Duke on June 19th and it is our prayer that they will tell him it is time for us to relocate to Durham.
Once we relocate to Durham, he will have his new lungs in 7 to 21 days. We have found an apartment, so we are ready when they make the decision to come. I will post our address when it is definite.
Until we have more news.......

Alan's Reflections
First of all, I would like to thank you for your prayers and concern for us - Judy and me. Your prayers are especially appreciated because through prayer and God's help anything is possible. Faith, determination, family, and friends are going to be the anchors that pull me through this difficult time. (I am a Navy guy, you know.)
Some of you like to give me a hard time, that is appreciated too! I know you are just doing so because you care. I look forward to many more fun times with each of you. May God bless and keep you.
Signing off with the name my grandchildren call me,
