Hi friends,
I’ve been absent and will continue to be for a while.
My dear friend Amanda had a stroke late Sunday night. Let me tell you about Amanda. She is in love with her husband and kids (4 with one on the way), she LOVES Jesus! Amanda is a runner, a homeschooler, and one of the most amazing women I’ve ever met.
She will overcome this! She will preserver and be victorious!
If you pray, please pray for her and her family. Can you imagine? I can’t get my head around it either. When something like this happens it makes us reexamine our priorities, and for now I’ll take a little blogging break and try to be there for my friend.
If you are moved to help and would like to send a gift card to this family email me or like My Plant-Based Family on Facebook and message me there. I’ll answer the Facebook messages a lot faster.
Thank you friends,
Holly

Amanda is an Amazing woman of God and in so many ways, as a wife and mother. Looking forward to see the miracles that will occur, and the testimony that will come out of this. This is such a reminder of how frail our lives are, and what little control we have over so many things. She honored her body in every way, and I know the Lord is faithful, and will get her and her beautiful family throughout this tragic time.
Thank you Holly for setting up this for the Ippel family.
