Oh Beth, I am so sorry. I will absolutely be praying for you.

Psalm 121 has always been a comfort to me, and I hope it is to you as well. May all your running be to Him. ♥

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Wow.

I think that’s one of the bravest posts I’ve ever read. You are a strong, smart person, and because of that you will succeed. A survivor.

Be well, Don

OH sorry, sorry, sorrry, sorrrry!
Thanks for letting us know.
When Don was diagnosed with myeloma, he said he wanted everyone to know because he needed their prayers.
You have our prayers for your surgery… and the good days to come.

Oh, Sweet Beth, I just checked out your blog since I’m back to blogging and I’m just 100% here for you. You are a POSITIVE, strong and healthy woman and you are a survivor…but this can’t be easy and my love and prayers are with you! There will always be other races and marathons and you’ll be back as an even stronger inspiration before you know it!
Hugs and thanks for sharing. xoxo

I really don’t know what to say. I am going to send you a note, but I am going to run for you in Chicago. We can also walk the turkey trot together. You are strong and awesome.

Beth,
I’m a colleague of Mike’s from CWT – just writing to add my gusto and fist pumps to your cheerleading squad. If there’s any family I know that can weather marathons, it’s the Koettings. My thoughts are with you! Gimme a “B!” Gimme an “E!”

Having been a witness to my mother and mother and law surviving their battles and coming out the other side more vibrant women I’m confident you will do the same.

My prayers are with you and yours!

If you could figure out the Disney monorail system, you’ll get this figured out/whipped too… with a little help from your friends

We’ll be keeping an eye on your progress here and you and your family will be in our thoughts.
