From the Hensley's.....

What's going on with the Hensleys, you ask???

It was a very chaotic summer! We were out of town a lot and the baby (Aliza) was sick a good bit of the time. Now, trying to get past all of that, we are working very hard on the weekends to ready our house for the market (copying the Rapers, hopefully with the same success!). Todd and I can barely move from the physical labor - as we are now both desk jockeys. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, eh? Anyway, we apologize for being so out of touch this summer and are working to get back on track.

More importantly, I have an urgent prayer request at this time. My very close cousin, Jared Reviea, is in the hospital. He was having pain and difficulty breathing. They ran tests and found spots on his liver. They said that the spots would have to be removed as soon as possible, but in the meantime, they continued to run more tests. They determined that he had a heart attack. While on the testing machines, he had another heart attack. The cardiologist came today and said that he has an enlarged heart and heart valve. They are doing more testing and an MRI to determine what needs to be done for this issue. Jared is 28 years old. He was just married in May and is helping to raise his 2 step daughters. Please say some urgent prayers for him and his new family.
