I seriously need some help. My 240 overflowed about 2 weeks ago and Doug was home and told me he turned off the pump. I was super busy and thought that with the heater in the main tank and power pumps going the tank would be ok for a few days until I had time to look at it. Three days later I...
Thanks Rod for hosting a great meeting. Winning three raffles just added to the pleasure. ;)
We also had two trees down in our backyard, hanging into a third tree, which saved our house. Doug and our neighbor spent two hours in the pouring rain cutting off branches from the two trees to get as...
So, our family has been extremely busy lately. We received a call from two different friends shortly after Maddie died telling us about a baby girl who was going to be born in March. They knew that the mother was putting the baby up for adoption and thought of Andy and Linda. They had looked...
Doug and I are both lovers of wine, though certain wines trigger my asthma lately. I think it may have to do with the amount of sulfites in some wines. We have made a few different kinds of wine at a local place. Really liked the Bordeaux we made 2 years ago.
Our daughter Holly also is a wine...

Maddie went to heaven on 11/10/09 shortly after her first birthday. Our daughter Loren created this tribute, which is set to Mark Harris' "Find Your Wings", which our son Andy (Maddie's dad) sang at her dedication at our...
Doug and I would like to thank you for all your support and prayers throughout this difficult time of overwhelming sorrow. Your outpouring of love and heartfelt care mean more to us than words can say. Some people have been asking about the services we are having. Please pray for our family at...
Our little Maddie was called home to heaven tonight at 6pm. There are so many words to say, and we'll have plenty of time for them. For now please just remember our family in prayer.
Love,
Erna and Doug
This is directly from Andy. We don't know how we are going to get through this but I can say with the prophet Job, "Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him." We know that our God is in control and while we don't understand at all why this is happening we can trust in Him. Thank you all for...
The shunt still isn't draining fluid from Maddie's brain. One of the
neurologist team members came in to check on Maddie about a half an hour
ago and said that it can take a while for the drain to start working.
They're still keeping her very cold too to try and bring down the swelling
in the...
Maddie was rushed to the hospital on Saturday morning. She has been diagnosed with Swine Flu. The virus is now attacking her brain and her brain is swelling. They did surgery this morning and put two shunts in to relieve the pressure. This hasn't helped as the brain has swollen so much that it...
Rod, Beer would be fine to bring.
Ed, Whatever you want to bring will be fine. ;D
I have been attacking the anemones with a vengeance, so hopefully the tank will look semi good on Saturday. :D
