Update on Nick
Dear Prayer Warriors,Thank you for your prayers and all of your emails of encouragment….I am sorry I can’t reply to all of them right now. I slip out to send an update and use a computer that can only be used for a limited time, but I read EVERY email that...Walking by Faith.
First of all, THANK YOU to everyone who posted such encouraging notes to me. I was blessed as I read each one! When things slow down I will visit with you more. I am in the ICU waiting room and wanted to post a quick note to let you know that Nick’s surgery took...
My Sweet Nick
It’s hard to believe that my baby boy will be 13 on Thursday!Almost half of Nick’s life has been spent fighting cancer, but the smile you see in this picture is the same one he has carried all along the way!We celebrated his birthday a little early and had...
Thumbs Up!
I can’t even remember who sent me this photo of a thumbs up painting, but I do remember it was sent one day a year or so ago when I needed a little sign from God that everything was going to be okay!Today, as I walked through my bedroom it was scrolling across...
Returning with Songs of Joy
Psalm 126:5-6 was part of my daily Bible study a week ago, and I had never heard these verses and felt so connected to them before in my life: Here is what they say:Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy. He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will...Never too big to be caught in a mousetrap!
You’d think that a human being could easily overcome the strength of a mousetrap! After all, they are designed to catch small, furry creatures who don’t even weigh in at half a pound.But, I found out this weekend that the devil is pretty sly! He not only...
Life is Tough…..Prayers are Tougher!
I was so excited to show up at the ball field one afternoon to find the principal from school along with her husband, escorting one of my students from last year back to their car. See, Jon was one of those students who had everything going for him! He was bright,...
It’s A Small World After All…..
I think God’s ability to pull together Christians from all of the world to pray for the same thing is simply AMAZING!!!!!!!! This group of children and their teachers are sending our son Nick a “thumbs up” to let Nick know they are praying for him in...
Songs of Joy in Spite of Tears
I think I am shrinking! This is a picture of my family (yes, they are all my kids except for my husband – to my left- and my brother – far left in front). We certainly fill a photo lens, don’t we?!?! This was the night of Nick’s big day! Our...
Meet Tammy
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven! Email me anytime at tammynischan@yahoo.com and I will reply as soon as I can!
