"Dearly beloved gift givers, card writers, emailers, bloggers, prayer warriors, and good thought givers. To those with the gifts of compassion, mercy, helps, prophecy,words of knowledge, revelation, encouragement, and to all of you...I am daily like the butterly filled with a sense of the delicateness of life and yet the strength of the creator of life and the strength of all of you who have been supporting me. Though my life is like those soft little wings they reflect the beauty of your love for me. and should the Lord propel me on to new heights with those wings or shortly take me home, I am at peace with the beauty that I see reflected in you that is of God."
My dad has finished his chemotherapy treatment, but as we've said before, the affects last for a long time and the chemo will still be killing off his bone marrow for the next week or so (and prayfully killing the blast cells along with the good cells). The bone marrow test will be around may 12.
So, our specific prayer is that the cancer cells will be killed along with no major infections and that the bone marrow test will show good results.
much love, the Lauers
P.S I want to give credit to Buddy for taking the photos :)

Dear Kit,
Loved your beautiful words about the butterfly and the fragile wings. They were sheer poetry.
Stay strong beloved brother and always know that we are with you in spirit and prayer.
Kit, I am persuaded that He is more than able to keep that which you have committed to Him... (Marv's rough translation).
God be with you dear brother,
Marv
Thanks for another coveted message. More words for me to live by.
We are praying every waking hour.
Kit, and the Lauer family,
Your word reminded me of the monarch butterfly spot in Santa Cruz. remember that? Thousands of them come there to winter on the trees. They are delicate, but they are so strong!!!! They make that migration every year, they stick together and hang on those eucalyptus trees for safety and warmth....No matter what wind comes we are hanging on that branch with you brother!!!!! We love you!
Danny and I think of you constantly and keep praying

You are always on my mind, Kit. Sometimes I just can't think of anything else. Your words are beautiful today, and comforting to me.

Hello Dr. Kit,
We have never met but our cell group was praying for you- "Chemo-Man". Since our names sound alike I felt it was okay for me to send you this message from one Christian Bro to another. I've been listening to your messages on line and have been blessed. I hope to meet you in person.
Yours in Christ,
Kimo
Hey Dr. "Chemo-man" Kit,
You look so colorful and bright in your "Chemo-man" protective wear on Tuesday.
Loved your analogy about the butterfly and life and Linda L.'s addition of how butterflies stick together...we're continue to lift you and your family up in prayer.
Love,
Deb

It's 12:10 am, I was in bed already and remember that I didn't read the blog tonight. I came back, turn on the computer and I'm so glad I did. Those beautiful words will inspire my night prayer...for you! Yes, life is so fragil and yet, we trust that God will hold us up on the palm of his hand like a butterfly. Hang in there my friend, He's lifting you up through all of us, praying for you non stop.
Luv u!
Dionei
P.S. Wrap those butterfly wings around my BFF and give her a big hug for me. I miss you Shelly!

"...we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 2 Cor. 4:8-9
" Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal", 2 Cor 4:16-18
KIT, you are in a cocoon right now, being renewed, being groomed. You will emerge a beautiful butterfly. Rest. rest well. get well. We are looking forward to the new goods that the "bad cells" had been killed.
Love,
Liza, Bradley, Gardner and Noelle
sending more love your way lauer family. we are still here praying.
may you be filled with the peace, patience and deep joy of the Holy Spirit today.
