CHRISTMAS at UNION BAY VANCOUVER ISLAND

MERRY CHRISTMAS and A HAPPY NEW YEAR to EVERYONE  from SHIELA and
FRANK

I have something to tell everyone who may be interested

When I  started walking SHIELA I had been taking morphine every six hours
I was also diagnosed  with COPD I was using a powder inhaler and a puffer daily
I was also diagnosed with prostate cancer

After I  walked for a month I no longer needed the pain meds or the inhalers

When I was camped between SECHELT and POWELL RIVER  I was lying in my tent cold and wet
my shoulders and hips were causing ME major pain

While I was praying a warm feeling spread through my body and the pain left my body and still has not returned

I THANK THE LORD for watching over me and my dog every day

I pray that THE LORD will  BLESS EVERY ONE for the help they have given SHIELA and ME

MANY THANKS to all the people who helped  SHIELA  and myself as we travelled on our journey  

I would like to wish every one a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a  HAPPY NEW YEAR  from SHIELA and ME.

MAY THE LORD BLESS EVERY ONE WITH PEACE  LOVE  AND JOY 

NOT JUST AT CHRISTMAS BUT EACH AND EVERY DAY

FROM  SHIELA  and  FRANK  SAPACH
