Hi everybody, As of the 10th my computer will be down for a while to upgrade and hook up to DSL. So temporarily my email address will be raedavissm@hotmail.com I will let you know when I get my new email address after I get all hooked up again. --- Rae Smith --- raedavissm@hotmail.com --- EarthLink: The #1 provider of the Real Internet.

I would like to thank everyone who prayed for me when I was sick. I am not 100% yet but am a lot better. As some of you know the Doctor found something in a test that didn't look good at all the last time I was there. He said that it was a disease but didn't know what disease. The list of diseases he said it could be was very scary. I went back to the Doctor Monday and they were going to see which of the diseases I had. Cancer, Heart Disease, and Kidney Disease were on the list just to name a few. He told me that it could possibly be something that could be treated because some of the diseases were not as serious as the others but none of them could be cured. A lot of people were praying for me so that when I went back on Monday I asked him to do the same test he had done before because I just had a feeling he wouldn't find anything this time. He did the test and sure enough he found NOTHING AT ALL!. Thank you to all of you that were praying for me. God still CAN and still DOES perform miracles!!. We just have to have faith in Him.
