Yeah Noe! You are sooo strong... Keep fighting. Alex... What an awesome husband, father and friend you are. We are all so lucky and blessed for you to be in all of our lives. Thanks for being so strong during this time. Love you guys! Tiff
Some good news, so happy. You are loved by so many people...me included. Know that I am thinking of you all the time, and can not wait to plan our next lunch date (with Tiff of course!)
Noe, we are always thinking of you and we know that your strong self is healing. Alex, you and the aunties and Grandma are in our thoughts all the time too, with Noah and Luke...you are all cradled in the strong web of love around you. -Val
Noe, you're the little engine that could! Keep chugging! You will be amazed at the amount of love, support and concern that is waiting for you. Lots of Love, Audrey, Mark, Kelsey and Riley
Stay strong, Noe- I missed you in swim today, and Sam told me what I had missed in the last couple weeks. You are such a strong person, and we are all thinking about you. Erin Byrn
To the Au-Yeung family, We learned today of Noe's courageous battle. Our deepest, heart-felt thoughts and best wishes go out to Noe and the Au-Yeung family. Our thoughts are with Noe as she stays strong. We look forward to seeing Noe with the boys at our office soon. :) Best Wishes for a speedy recovery, Bernstein Orthodontics
Noe, we only met such a short time ago. Our children were on the same football team. When I met you then I thought you were such a warm, wonderfull lady. Then I went to my first Bible study with the church and there you were. I found you so full of wisdom and kindness. You are in my prayers everyday Noe, you and your family. May God touch you with his healing hand and bring peace and comfort to all those around you.---Theresa
Isaiah 58:8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.
Keep fighting Noe ... you looked great. Alex it was great meeting and talking to you this afternoon. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wonderful family. Keep fighting Noe. - Darlene Nellis
The Cavalli's are praying for you dayly. God gave me the following for you guys today.
Patience in Suffering
7Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains. 8You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near. 9Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door! 10Brothers, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
The Prayer of Faith
13Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. 16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. 17Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.
This scripture's reference to patience through suffering, and the power of prayer fits perfectly. In fact, I believe that God has heard all of our prayers and is intervening for Noe. We all must continue to intercede for Noe, Alex, and the boys. It is a battle and we must persevere. The enemy will not have his way. God, I pray that you will continue to heal Noe, strengthen Alex, and comfort the boys. Surround them all with your sweet, peaceful comfort.
We love you guys, Michael, Rene, Joseph, Cello, Brie, Lisi, and baby Danny
I think about you so many times throughout the days and am always wishing you the best. I miss seeing your bright smile and hearing your happy voice, but I know I will again soon. I believe you have it in you to find your way out of this difficult time.
Noe, you are amazingly strong and an inspiration to us all, as is your wonderful husband/soulmate, Alex, and your precious sons...stay strong and be of good courage...your Lord walks with you, and so many of us are 'there' beside you as well. You are so loved! Nancy Arreola
Noe would be swimming at the club, riding her bike for hours, putting miles on her running shoes, working in the boy's classroom, visiting family in Hawaii, running errands, mentoring women, taking care of the family...and so on. But right now, Noe is fighting another battle, Bacterial Meningitis. Please read her story and join with us in prayer. We don't know of the trials ahead, but we know God has it all in His plan . "...and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith.." Hebrews 12:1,2
