As you all know I was in the states from May 8, 2013 to August 1st. My mother went to be with the lord 2 days after I arrived there. I thank God for being able to be there with my dad and brothers and sisters during this tough time for us all.
I spent the rest of the time there 6 weeks with my Dad and family. I lift my Dad in prayer. He is very lost without the love of his life. My mom was sick and in a nursing home for the last 5 years. My dad went and had dinner with her and held her hand until she went to sleep every night except 2 nights when he was in the hospital. I pray for a friend for my dad someone he can do things with like going to rummage sales and golfing.
I went to AZ for 3 weeks and had time to visit my friends and church. Kristen always has a room open and ready for me. Bob is always fun to spend time with. I am so blessed with the friends and family I have all over the world.

the end of my time in the states I spent time with my friend Anne-Marie. We visited places I have never been. So much fun.
I returned to Madagascar on August 1st. On August 9th while out walking trying to move a little more, my buddy and companion Bandit was run over by a car and died. I grieve for him I still miss him especially at night because he slept under the bed or right beside the bed. When I get up he was always there right beside me.
Yesterday I received notice my uncle had passed away. He had a stroke on Saturday and didn't make it.
I pray God will move me into a new season past these deaths. I know He will not give me more than I can handle, but I think I am at my limit. Asking for you prayers.
