It's not easy being away from someone you love especially when you feel helpless and not sure how to fix it all .... but we are here for you with postive thoughts and prayers .... heck dirty jokes and stupid stories if needed
Mark, Shawna or kiddos
IF YOU NEED US WE ARE HERE JUST HOLLER
PS. I think a baby named @Tripod or @KayTwo might not roll off the tongue as easy as, i dont know maybe Ross
Display MoreThanks Jared! Baby & I are doing better than any of the doctors expected. Hoping to make it one more week, so baby’s bone marrow has more of a fighting chance at birth. We miss home but have been kept afloat from all the love from afar!
Mark is not doing as well at all. I’ve never seen him this low. He’s exhausted all his coping mechanisms and is in a dark place. Isolation and loneliness isn’t helping either. I can’t get home soon enough! The boys popped in for a short visit today- the last before baby. Can’t wait until we’re a family again. Thank you so much for thinking of us... we love you so much!

Great looking family
Wishing you all the best in health and happiness
Well wishes and prayers still headed your way. I know it is rough on the family but hang in there.
Continuing to lift you all up in prayer! Mark, you have this! Remember the blessings in life, I see 3 and 3/4's blessings right there in that photo!
Just a quick little update before I get whisked into another whirlwind...
After y’all saved the day, covering the shortfall of our January mortgage payment (and enough left for some sling parts and a teen’s mattress that had been longed for), a miracle happened... a pipeline project that been cancelled the year before, suddenly was up and running. This meant... customers!!! In fact, enough guests to cover February 1st bills (your prayers did this folks!). Mark was already having a tough time coping by himself and now has been unexpectedly trying to run an RV Park by himself at the same time. Doing this in -30 in Canada is a challenging job. Already someone has set fire to the electrical, frozen our entire septic system, our vac truck Broke down and the job is very very full time. I’m normally the cop keeping these guys in line but right now the inmates are running the prison (Mark is waaaaaaaay too nice). Despite the rough ride, it’s the very best thing that could’ve happened and we are so grateful for the work. What this also means though is your packages are sitting there... waiting to be shipped. I feel so bad that I’m out of commission here but I will get to them as soon as I can... you’ve all been so amazing- the love and support has carried us through the scariest and loveliest of times... I’m especially grateful for the couple pictures that were sent and are on my wall in my little room here.
Wednesday is the big day. Mark will have to leave the park unattended and him and the boys will come for the big, long-awaited event. The neonatologist has told us that the baby will have a three month struggle against the antibodies. Our hope is that the majority of that can be on an OUTpatient basis. Doc says we can only see the tip of the iceberg though so we won’t know how strong the baby’s bone marrow is until he/she storms into this world. We’ll let you know! Mark is feeling confident that we’ll be home for Valentine’s Day. He figures his baby is gonna fight good and strong. Well, we all know that only quality products come out of the Slingshot Garage...
Much love... xoxo

Praying that everything goes well with the procedure and that you all are home resting up real soon!
Wonderful news that the park has gotten busy! Yes, I'm certain it's rough on Mark, but prayers are being answered and I'm sure glad to hear it! Will continue to be lifting your family up in prayers!
Continued prayers and warm Texas wishes.
