Friends and Family,
The answer is YES!!! THE WOMBLES ARE STATESIDE!!!! Praise God from Whom all
blessings flow! We are all very relieved to finally have them Stateside.
Contact
Medical teams are prepared and will be doing assessments of their conditions.
John Russell and Debbie Wiseman will issue press releases once we have test
results back from the doctors. We have also set up a phone line in the prayer
room of Bell Shoals Baptist Church to provide updates on their medical
conditions. It will be active Sunday. The number is (813)689-4229 X549. We have
also provided an address for you to send correspondence to the family at Wombles
C/O Nickersons, 809 E. Bloomingdale Ave, #408, Brandon, Fl 33511. In addition,
we have provided a Web site for you to post messages at www.hbm4him.org/WombleNews/index.htm.
The Wombles need to hear from you, but please utilize these resources for all
contacts with the Wombles and Nickersons. Let's all love them in a way that
allows them to heal completely and quickly.
Friends, if any of you are aware of the whereabouts of the undisclosed location,
we are making a formal request you not contact any of the principles or the
caregivers or the medical institutions involved directly at this time. This will
interfere with their care. Please (!!!) do not contact them. Please allow them
some time to rest and allow them the much needed anonymity. Please know we are
sharing everything with you as we are released to do so. John Russell is our
media liaison and is handling the media. As requested before, please refer all
media contacts to him.
We have received numerous e-mails with offers of help. We will respond to those
as soon as we can. Our total focus has been on getting the Wombles Stateside at
this time. All needs are met at this time. THANK YOU for your offers of help.
You will be contacted as your offers of help are needed. We just wanted you to
know we have received your e-mails and are blessed by your kindness. THANK YOU!!
THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!
Update
All 8 members of the family - the Wombles and Grandparents - were medivac'd to
an undisclosed location in the United States today. The flight went very well.
Everyone was able to rest and the children were able to get naps. The family was
able to celebrate Samuel's 7th birthday while in route. They were also able to
play some games together. Samuel won the first two games of UNO. He was
thrilled. The family is now checked in the hospital at the undisclosed location.
We will provide further updates as SOON as they are received and we are released
to do so. Just wanted to get something out to you as quick as possible.
We praise God for your love and support during this time. Thank you.
Singing His Praises Loudly in the States,
Nick and Donna Nickerson
