Hey everyone. There is not a lot of new information to report today. Dr. Moon is still working on getting Smiley strong enough to make the flight home. We all need to pray that the airline will allow Smiley to fly. They have the right to deny him if they think he's unable to fly. Dr. Moon is doing all that he can to help Smiley onto the plane. Smiley and Steve are scheduled to arrive at Atlanta airport on Saturday morning at 9:45 am. I know that we had all hoped to be there with loving arms to welcome them home, but we are not going to be able to do that. At this point, even the family is not going to travel to Atlanta. The reason is that we would not be able to see them anyway. There will be an ambulance awaiting Smiley when the plane lands. The ambulance will be staffed with EMT's and will bring Smiley and Steve back to Greer. We are unsure at this point if Smiley will go straight to Greer Memorial Hospital or home. We may not know that detail until closer to their arrival.
Please pray for these last couple of days in Korea for Smiley and Steve. The treatment that Smiley receives is very important in getting him home to us. And I can only imagine how hard this journey has been on Steve. I admire him so much for all that he has done. Don't forget that he and his family need our prayers also.
Yesterday was a very tough day. It's very hard to hear that someone who we all love so much will not be with us much longer. But please remember that it has been a huge group effort from a God-loving community that even gave Smiley that hope. And I can tell you for sure, he was so happy to have that hope and to have the opportunity to make the trip! Like I've said many times, God has been and still is working through Smiley's miracle trip. The miracle that we had all hoped for - the miracle of Smiley's healed body - hasn't happened. BUT, through the hope of one miracle, I believe many other miracles have taken place. God is so good - He has a plan!
Thank you all for everything! We need to keep working hard on the fundraisers - there are many medical bills to be paid. Don't forget the Bluegrass Concert and hot dog supper TONIGHT at Blue Ridge Middle School! Hot dog supper begins at 5:30! See you all there :)
Please keep praying - pray for God's will to be done and pray for the strength and understanding for Smiley's family that only God can provide!
Much Love and prayers to you all :)
I'll be in touch...
Leigh
