Grad Weekend in Abbotsford
Jen Crosby here, reporting from Abbotsford! We have the pleasure of hosting the Wade's this weekend for Rachelle's Graduation from Summit Pacific College (ALL the Wade's). I think we've got 9 extra people sleeping here tonight! We're having a lot of fun and Rachelle's grad ceremony was lovely.
I'm going to teach Esther how to do this blogging thing shortly, so she can keep you all informed when Tim has a down week. He's had the flu, which kept him in bed, but his energy and appetite are improving now.
He had a great time at Rachelle's Grad banquet last night and at the ceremony tonight. And he's having a great time snoozing right now.

Tim, I am so glad that I got to see you and your beautiful family at grad...I am blessed to know such wonderful people and I was honored to sit beside your daughter at the ceremony. Thank you for coming, it meant so much to me.
Hello to all the Wades! You look good Tim but it looks like you need a haircut, maybe I can get mom to bring her clippers when we come to see you.:) You all look great in the family photo and a big congratulations to Rachelle upon graduating! I look forward to seeing you all soon (beginning of June). I'm sure mom will be talking to you over the phone before then but take care and I think and pray for you often.
Love always,
Cousin Kelly XXXOOOOXXXOOO

YES! So glad to hear the news. Thanks so much Jen(and Julie)
Rachelle - Congratulations - you have worked so hard and you deserve this.
Tim and Esther, you have a wonderful daughter who perservered when things were tough, but the Lord has given your family the strength to endure these times, so now "it is your time to laugh, dance, sing and pluck up what has been planted (kind of mixed it up a little but you all know what I mean!}
I am so happy that you got over the flu in time to celebrate this accomplishment with your wonderful family. I am sure that you are a very proud family of Rae.
Have a safe trip home. God Bless you all.
awww you all look so great!!
Rae, you are so beautiful, everyone is so proud of you... CONGRATULATIONS!!
Find your happy place Tim, and hang on to it, you are an amazing human being with the inner strength that contines to shine.
Love and hugs and prayers, Cindy Sue XXOO

Heard this week from Gene that Tim had been admitted after grad to a hospital in Abbotsford. Does anyone know how things are going or if he is now home?
Meanwhile, we are praying...
Tim was dehydrated while he was in Abbotsford so after Rachelles grad, he was in the Abbotsford Hospital. He was there for 2 days for Iv therapy.Tim and Esther are now at a holistic/healing clinic in Wash. until further notice.As I get updates on Tims condition,I will update his Blog.Please continue to pray for Tim. Julie
tim belongs at home w/ family and friends, not in some far off place where he knows no one.GOD be w/ you bro.
it sure would be nice if someone let all the prayer warriors know what is happening and how our little buddy is doing. remember tim,
GOD has healed you already! love4ever doug/sandra
Dear Wades, yes we are worried of this silence. But what more can we do as praying? So let us pray for all the Wades! Love from good big and small friends over the ocean
I just spoke to Esther on the phone in Washington(4pm Sunday)She told me that Tim is continuing to regain his strength daily. He is off all his medications and is in no pain!He has not vomited in the last 3 days and is starting to eat again.They will be there until mid June and at that time, may possibly be able to return to WL, depending on Tim's progress.I was encouraged after talking to Esther and hearing how God is working in Tim's life. Please continue to pray for Tim and Esther and the rest of the family. Cecile may be seeing them on the weekend and Tim may be able to do the blog with her help. Julie
Hi Julie (Switzerland calling).
Thanks for your info. Which Washington is this? Is there a town in BC called Washington, or the state in USA?
so glad to hear the good news. Way to go Julie....we can pray with more purpose now.
It is the state of Washington,which is south of BC.They are about 2-3 hours from Vancouver, BC and I think about an hour from Seattle Wash. Julie
Thanks Julie for the information.
Yahoo! I knew some NATURAL therapy would work for Tim, as did Ester.
I am so worried about Gino. He has been VERY angry. Easily brought to tears with sadness. I just wanted to ask anyone belonging to Ginos church, if you could contact him and give him some positive advice with the lord, I'm sure it would help.I have never seen Gene so confused. Under the circumstances, it's understandable, I just don't know how to guide him. I am always there for him when he calls,but he needs more guidence from the church (I think) I hope this was ok to write, I just want to help him.
I'm so glad and full of praise for Tim's healing.
Re: Gene...I have observed the same. Maybe pastoral counsel?
Also, is Tim's treatment something he pays for or is it covered by medical plan? Is this a need we can support/pray over? Don't want to be nosy, only supportive of the healing going on.
Hi everyone! I just wanted to say thank-you from the very bottom of my heart for all your support. Our familiy is truly blessed to have so many people walking this journey with us. Thank-you. It has been difficult days... lots of changes to get used to... but knowing that we are completely surrounded by people who love us and are so willing and ready to help, makes things easier. Just know how much we appreciate you all.
I know there are some that do not necessarily agree with the current method of treatment and the fact that my daddy is not here with us, but I want you to know that my brothers and I completely support them in this decision and feel that this is best for now. My mother loves the Lord, is continually growing in Him, and desires to serve Him fully. I believe that she would not do anything without consulting Him first and so, though I miss them both terribly, I am at peace with the decision and trust God with everything. Maybe this will help a few of you who feel distraught to also have peace.
I was talking to my bro. Joel last night and we both came to a pretty amazing realization. You know, most wives in the same situation would have given up by now... probably would have left him in the hospital until he died. Not my mom. Nope, she picks up her husband, whom she loves with all her heart, and keeps fighting. As the receptionist where they're staying said to my grandma, "I have never seen a more dedicated wife". Wow.
Also, thank-you all for your concern for Geano. He is part of the family. My daddy is his best friend. They spent a lot of time together. Same with Joel. Both are gone and I think Geano is feeling lonely, as well as confused. A good way to help is by spending time with him. He just wants to have people to talk to, to hang out with.
We love you all so much. Thanks again.
Rachelle
Thanks Rachelle for telling us your feelings, your thoughts. Your parents are really special. When they were on their 25th wedding anniversy in Switzerland, your Mum kept on saiing, that your Dad makes her so much laugh. After all this years together. Knowing your parents is for us like a very special treat of GOD. And I belive all you say in this blog. Praise the Lord for a family like you are / have.
Rachelle,
It is very apparent that your parents have done an absolutely perfect job in raising you, with the help of the Lord of course. Your words are the wisest that I have heard in a very long time, and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and feelings with us. It does give me much comfort to know that although it is very difficult that all is well with the comfort of the Lord. I think as a new Christian, I sometimes forget that and it is so good to be reminded of that by someone who has grown up knowing the Lord, so thank you for that. So many times we worry about things that we don't control.
I admire your parents immensely, their choice is exactly that - "their choice". I will continue to pray for your Mom, Dad and you and your family. I will also say a special pray for Gene.
Is Al around?
You are an amazing family to give others strength. Again, thank you so much for sharing your feelings with us.
Rachelle, Good for you to let everyone know how your family feels about your dads Journey! Yes, it is a freedom of choice as to how your mom and dad want to deal with his healing process! I am glad to hear that he is not having much or any pain now and that your mother stands by him each day as strong as ever! Alot of people would have given up hope by now, but with the strength of the lord behind them they have not given up! Any time extra in life is always an added blessing! Stay strong and I am so glad you belive in standing behind your parents like you do! Giving your mom and dad extra strength daily. It takes a strong person to be dealing with this situation with them afar.
Take care, and my the lord give you more strength!!!

I just want to let you know that I'm thinking about you, and wishing you all the best (all of you) Tim, you have an amazing wife. I have only met her a couple of times, but from everything I've read, she is beautiful on the inside and out. Be strong, and just know that you're loved by many people.

Hi Tim and Esther! Just wondering how things are going? I've been thinking of you more often these days as I am anxious to see you in June. You guys must be very special to me because I am biting the bullet and going to fly for the first time :). Rachelle if you have any news to put on the blog I'd love to hear how your dad and mom are doing. Take care and keep getting better!! I love you all and I'll see you soon.
Hugs and Kisses,
Cousin Kelly
