September 19-23 Blessings

Thursday September 19 to Monday September 23:  Nanette and Sergio had a wonderful visit from Elder Summerrhays of the Seventy and both received a Priesthood blessing from him.  Their friend Jared Bunn also came to the hospital immediately and Sergio and Jared also gave her a Priesthood blessing.  Elder Lance Wickman, Seventy emeritus, called Sergio and Nanette to convey his prayers and concern for them.  Elder Wickman had been their Stake President in California for years.  She had many friends and family visit her and enjoyed having the company.  She was very cognizant of her surroundings and the friends and family who came to see her.  Their sons Jared and Tyler, daughters Regan and Riley, her brother Robert, and her mother were with her at the hospital.  The outpouring of love and concern for her was significant and appreciated.  Their son Nick had just arrived in the Ecuador Mission to serve two years for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  They were able to talk to him and encourage him to stay on his mission and do the Lord's work.  He assured them he would and pray daily for his mother's recovery and have faith in the future.  Nanette's brother Tony came from California and stayed for five days to help and to spend time with Nanette.  Sergio's brother Jose and wife Debbie also came from California and stayed for more than a week to help in every way possible.
