DEE

Again my God gives me some wonderful nuggets of help! David's cousin/ sister, Dee, and her son, Matt drove over from Charleston for a visit today. What a treat! David's Father adopted his own brother's children after he died, so they are cousins but the grew up looking at each other as brothers and sisters.
Confusing, I know!
Anyhoo, Dee is the one whose son was swept away by a riptide a few years ago, and presumed dead, only to be found 8 miles away from Charleston, because he remembered the scouting principles from Uncle David and scouts and swam with the current.
Her husband just recently died of a brain tumor, so she was a wealth of information for David and me, and gave him so much comfort on what to expect in certain areas. She was a huge help to me too. The neatest thing Matt shared with us was his personal CD testimony. He was so overcome with emotion as he was in the water for those 8 hours that he totally gave his life to the Lord, and he made a CD testimony that is wonderful! He prayed with me and we talked for a good bit. I felt covered by the blood of the lamb today, as I do everyday! It just arrived in a prettier package!
