We received a call from Becky this a.m.that Buddy was in the emergency, because of a bike accident... so.. we are praying that he is okay... Becky said that there were no broken bones... but we do not know details yet...
Mikey called last night from Oregon and he really wants to come home and be with his dad. He has decided to not go to school this quarter and continue on later. He and Shae prayed about it and they will come as soon as they can. Mark and Jori Spencer have so graciously offered to buy their ticket, and I am thankful for them doing that.
We have the nicest doctors and nurses over here. I feel their caring hearts and concern. They are supporting Kit in trying to get home.
Your comments and e-mails are supporting me and Kit to the max... This morning Maisha called and said... "You sound like you have a cold.". and I said no... I have just been reading the blog.. and I cry through each comment posted... Kit loves hearing me read them to him.... even though I cry while reading them.
We love you guys so much.. shelly and kit

Shelly, sorry to add up to your post (this was supposed to be in the comment, but I really wanted to post this song for you and Kit, and I didn't want to start a new post because I want everyone to see your update right away) I thought of just giving you the link, but I think it's better to actually embed this in the blog.Kit, I first heard this song from you. May this gives you peace, hope and comfort. Love, Liza

Thanks for the update Shelly, so great to talk to you this morning. It is so amazing to see you so strong in standing with Kit in this time. Josh and I are praying for those hallucinations. Thinking of you all the time and always praying.

We are so glad that Shae & Mikey will be coming home. We have been praying for that! Please let us know if they (& you, of course) need ANYTHING.
Praying still...Love you, ciara
Dear Shelly and Kit,
Mike and I are praying, praying and more praying. It grieves us to read what the two of you are going through, and there isn't a moment when the two of you are not on our thoughts.
Thank you too for loving our son Sam and having such a huge impact in his life. We love you both and are praying continually..
Love,
Mike and Susan
Oh, I wish I knew the right words to say, the right prayer to pray to give you both more strenth but I think that God has already found them for you both. You are amazing.

Praying you all peace and strength and rest. Praying good dreams for Kit. Don't know where this verse is exactly but my dad used to say it all the time 'He gives his beloved sweet sleep'.
love you guys - crying and praying with you
tell kit that I am using appologetics on my boss - he is a Christian with a good brain and a lot of questions:)

It's Jacqueline the camera lady my heart is with you and your family I am still here still praying and you pop into my mind all the time. I want to thank you for all that you have given to me through the years. Your teachings that has bought me through some dark times. Times of unfaithful husband to divorce. To climbing back to having a peaceful heart and how to stay on the path with God. I need to tell you my daughter has come back to church after almost 7 years and the man shes going to marry has come to the lord this last Sunday I lead my boyfriend to the Lord about a month ago. Not with out strife for Satan is doing a number on me now. Because of your teachings I know this to shall pass. Keep up the good work Love, Jacqueline I do miss chasing you around on stage with the camera
So I am just trying to stay in touch with how you are. I just finished reading The Shack, it was a Christmas gift. It gives alot of room for thought. But tonight as I picked up the bible this is what I was lead to. Oh what an old reading, but you know it is so what we needed to hear tonight.
Psalm 23
The Lord is my sherherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me bsides still waters, he restores my soul. He leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the day of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord,,,,,Forever

Kit and Shelly,
I've been following this blog since you all started it, even while I've been away at school in Washington DC, and I've praying for healing. I've been hoping to get to Maui, but so far it hasn't worked out.
I just especially wanted to thank you for your message that you preached when you first came back to Maui. I listened online, and cried through most of it. Your lives have been a gift to so many people, and your faith throughout suffering is a testimony of God's grace. Thank you for the reminder that there is more than this life.
Rachel
Dear Kit & Shelly,
Thinking and praying for you daily. Hoping both of you get peaceful rest. Fatigue is such a theif.
Know you will love being with Mikey and Shea.
Love, Lynne
Hi Shelly,
I read this scripture and instantly thought of you and Kit:
“Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.”- Ephesians 5:1-2
YOU and KIT are a fragrant offering to all of us. I'm glad you will be with your kids soon--I am so in awe of you and how you are handling. My heart is breaking for you as a wife. I am praying that God is protecting Kit from the "bad dreams" and that you feel Jesus' arms wrapped around you, strengthening you, holding you up and doing the same for Kit. I know the prayers are sustaining you, and your faithfulness just continues to AMAZE me and inspire me--surely every wife reading this blog is inspired to be a better wife and mother. To be like you, as you model Jesus with so much genuine love.
Lord, please take away the pain and bad thoughts from Kit. We love him so much. Let him feel our love pouring out for him as we pray for his healing. And give Shelly strength and comfort minute by minute. We love you, Father. Amen
Shelly, please email if you need anything (more chocolate?:) or whatever!
Love, Robyn
Hi Kit & Shelly,
Today was a good day at the Point. Yuko had lots of good reports and no bad ones. God has covered it for you Shelly. Everybody who lives and works there ask about Kit everyday. You can feel the love and concern because of all the years you have poured into that place. Your heart, your sweat and mostly your love of the people. You are missed Shelly.
My heart has been so heavy for the both of you. I appreciate your blogs Shelly because you keep it real for us. It presses us into the Lord and His Spirit groans in the intersession. Sometimes I groan with it. My dreams were restless last night as I dreamed about the Lauer family and arose early to pray for you with Lynn. We pray for you constantly and of course you are in the children's bedtime prayers as well.
Please know that when I blog that I always try to be sensitive to what you are experiencing. Yet at the same time my nature is always to be the encourager and so that is what it is.
We want you home Kit. So we will pray and beg for mercy.
With love,
Mele & Ohana
Our hearts are heavy with all you're going through. You all are in our many thoughts and prayers. Thanks for being such a wonderful example of God's love.
Much love,
Cliff & Jeri
Dear kit and Shelly,
I keep thinking about the first time we met....We were on vacation in maui and had promised my brother Danny that we would meet up with you. Kit,Mikey,Rick and Ricky got together to workout at your house. You and I sat at your table and we talked about our kids. You made us feel so welcome. I remember that Shae stayed back at the condo when we went to your house. She did not meet Mikey until the following summer when he came to Oregon...I still remember Rick and Ricky talking about Kit and all the wrestling moves he knew. We left your house that day thinking "What great people!"
We too are thankful that Mikey and Shae are going home.
We love you guys...and will not stop praying for healing. Keep fighting Kit!
Rick and Vickie
Rick and I also wanted to say Thank you to Mark and Jori....we are very touched by this gift for Mikey and Shae.
Kit and Shelly,
God's love shines through you, thanks for shining on us :) 2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness", made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
Love you guys, Barb for both
Kit and Shelly:
You are in our thoughts and prayers. YOu are such great warriors - Kit ever so strong in your faith no matter what. Shelly the woman of courage standing by her husband for better or worse. You two are such an example to the rest of us of what true Christianity is all about! We love you so very much and will continue to knock on heavens door for Kit's healing.
The Zautner Ohana
Dear Kit and Shelly

Thank you for the beautiful song. It was so Hope Chapel and I shut my eyes while listening to it. My prayers are so intent on the Lauer family. I just pray that you had a peaceful night with much needed rest for both you Kit and Shelly.
