We received bad news at Mark's appointment

Mark had an appointment with his kidney doctor yesterday....or as Peyton would say "kiddy" doctor.

Mark left feeling very bad and very depressed. We found out the doctor's 1991 Mercedes Benz was in a head on collison and was totalled.

Otherwise, everything else was great! Mark's doing great and no changes were made!

Did I freak anyone out? I'm sorry if I did. If I did, thank you so much for caring so much. :)

Here's the story with the car. About a year ago, Mark's doctor was telling Mark about his car, a 1991 Mercedes Benz. Ever since then, Mark has wanted to see it really bad. There is a dialysis center just down the street from our house that the doctor makes his rounds at once a month. Literally, every time we go by that center, Mark looks for this Mercedes Benz. It's like he NEEDED to see it. So, you can imagine how devastated Mark was to learn the car was totalled. It didn't matter that the doctor said how great Mark looked and how stable the kidney was doing....nope. All that mattered was that this car was totalled.

The doctor also said Mark set a record for the most words Mark has ever said to him. :) Mark doesn't talk hardly at all during doctor's visits.

I also wanted to share this video. Any Christian couple waiting for a baby HAS to see this video. This is the amazing part behind this. I wasn't having a good day and feeling a little down and told a friend about it. She sent me this video. This song is from the movie "Fireproof" and it's about a couple waiting while their marriage is in trouble. But, when she found this video, it was a dedication to couples waiting for a "gift from God". She thought it was neat how she found that particular video of the song. What she didn't know is at the end, it shows a picture of a baby. It's like God wanted her to show me that particular video and that was the one she found. I mean the song wasn't even originally about a baby, but fixing a marriage!

God works in mysterious ways.

Anyway, here is the video. I really hope you take the time to watch it. It's pretty powerful.
