It’s fitting for our first post to be on a Sunday, the Lord’s day. I (Kori) planned on getting Frankie to church for the first time in a year and a half today. Unfortunately, I woke up feeling too worn down for all that it takes to get us out of the house. I wasn’t too disappointed, I’d learned long before Frankie’s AVM issues to go with the day. Frankie’s having a good day, so I pushed him to do some of his home therapy program. He decided to do 20 mins on his peddler; which is huge for him to set a goal for himself and to have it be a good goal! I turned on some music, set him up, and decided to do some stretching of my own! I may not get much else out of him today. I also have to remember to temper my excitement and hope that way my disappointment is manageable when he isn’t able/doesn’t want to keep himself so fully engaged and motivated. I’ll share our story as I feel up to it; but I know the Lord is pushing me past my comfort zone to be less private about our marathon journey dealing with a cerebral AVM and the after affects.
Frankly Faithful 
Praying for encouragement both directions as you share your journey…for others who can learn to trust God more fully and for yourself as the Lord works through you!

Kori, I pray for you and Frankie every night and lift your names in every prayer group. Strength, peace and love I send to you. When you’re feeling washed out, lean on me, lean on us – as Becky would say (and probably already has) we’ve got your back. All my love, Uncle Frank

Take every step at just the time it is meant to be taken. You two are amazing, Kori! Always praying for you, and there if you ever want someone to listen without comment or judgement. This goes for Frankie, too! Your cousin, Jen.

Kori, we’ve never met, but your family has been in my prayers through all of this. You are a powerful witness of the way God works through weak vessels. God I good – ALL THE TIME. He will bring good out of this. Thank you for sharing through this blog. It shows me more specific ways to pray for you. In His love, Ellen Bell

We have never met, either. I went to nursing school with Deb McCoy Freeman and she has shared your story on FB. Kori, Frankie and family you are in my prayers daily. Your faith renews my faith. God’s blessings and peace to you all.

I’m so proud of you honey💜 … it’s not easy to be vulnerable to anyone (period) let along to many you’ve never met. Yet another sign of your incredible faith, obedience, unconditional love and strength. I KNOW God has and will continue to bless many thru the sharing of your journey. My hope is these writings bring encouragement as you allow us to walk alongside. If not physically then in earnest prayer for Gods direction and will. 💜love you
