Hello to you all -- it has been some time since the blog has been updated -- but, The Osgood's have made course change that all of you that know and love them should be aware of....
Please read Linda's thoughts below -- and, please keep them in your prayers.
May God keep each of you in His presence,
Debbi (friend of the family)
Our family situation has taken a drastic change as Skip has decided to forgo any further treatment in the light of this new news that the tumor is growing again and, in fact, migrating to the other hemisphere of his brain. He just does not want to go through the agony of chemo and wants to spend quality time with the girls with the time he has left. In-home hospice is now in place on a part-time basis.
This has been a very surreal experience. Skip is pretty convinced that it will not be long. He has asked that we celebrate Christmas early so the week before Thanksgiving, we will keep the girls home from school and just have a festive time of it.
Please pray for gracious passing, gentle and kind. Pray for wisdom as I try to cover all our bases with compassion. Pray that He will be glorified continually and that through this experience, God may be made real in the hearts of Skip's family. Pray for our girls that the right people may come along side of each of them to comfort them and point them to a Mighty loving God who hurts right along with them. Pray that they will stand firmly on the promises of a loving Heavenly Father who will not forsake them. Pray for Skip that he has peace knowing that he will rest in the arms of Jesus who will welcome him home, celebrating the mighty warrior that Skip has been.
