Tony,

Thank you so much for the information on Ruth. She is such a caring person I hate to see her having to struggle so. Please forward my well wishes on to her if you speak with her. I hope someone else has information on Patty and will share with us. She has been through so much and deserves good health, as we all do.

Tony, you go and enjoy your visit with your Mom. I will be thinking of you basking in the sun as we freeze here in Virginia. You listen to your heart and do what you feel is best. I know how much your MOM means to you and you push so much to spend quality time with her. Enjoy and tell her I said hello and to take good care of you which I know she will.

Have a lovely Holiday Season.

Dear Tony,

I am sorry to hear of your friend Steve. You obviously meant a great deal to him and to his mother beccause of your unending love for all.

Isn't it sad that Steve's father in his grief felt the need to hurt another person? It does seem that father's have the most difficult time with this illness or any illness. But by you showing up, he at least knows someone else cared about his son.

Take care of your self, you are loved by many.

Amy

Dear Tony,

I'm so glad that you are surrounded by the love of your mom and your sisters. They can help hold you up when you need it and their love will give you strength.

Do you get the newsletter? If not - I'll e-mail to you directly. It's a beautiful day and I shall look for your star tonight which just might be a planet! Oh well, the wish is still the same: I wish you love and peace, dear Tony, for now and evermore.

With love,

Amy

Thanks for passing on Tony's news. It must feel so good to be surrounded and cared for by his mom after being ill for so long. I was just going to ask if anyone had heard from him, so I was glad to hear things are going okay. His ability to keep on top of everything and be so positive is truly an inspiration.

" When you have God behind you, you can come out on top every time. "

- Alvin Cullum York

Dear Friends:

Most people when they go to the hospital usually go to have surgery to have

something removed or fixed or to even deliver a baby. What if you went into the

hospital and were critically ill and what the nursing assistants removed was

your dignity and respect in your last hours here. To make matters even worse

when you tried to speak and tell what happened, the nursing assistants laugh at

you-like you did not know what you were talking about in front of your

child-that your voice did not count.

What if the same family values, still ran in your family today like in the years

of your relative Sergeant Alvin C. York? God, Family, Community. You gave the

hospital a chance to correct their mistake by not suing them. By correcting some

obvious policies that were out dated so the nursing assistants did not get just

a “verbal.” Then they asked you what could we do to “honor” your loved one. You,

the child thought endlessly and gave the hospital suggestions but they would

shun them down and never would offer what they would do.

Instead waiting weeks even months, hoping you went away they toyed with your

mind and downplayed what happened. They would talk down to you. This would

happen even when you knew the truth.

To think, it could have been as simple as planting a tree or even donating

materials or time to some agency in the name of your loved one. Just something

to show they respected the dearly departed.

Does it sound like it could not happen in this day in age? Is it true that we

cannot talk as adults to resolve issues but have to seek peace and justice

strictly through the courts.

You will be shocked to know this did happen at a hospital in Laconia, New

Hampshire.

I was the child that heard my mother’s plea.

Frequently Asked Questions

> FAQ about Islam

> (Frequently Asked Questions)

> Who is Allah?

> Allah means God. It is a personal name, which Allah calls Himself in the

Koran. That is where we get it. It can also be found in an Aramaic copy of

the Bible, and even Christian Arabs say Allah.

> Who is Jesus to us?

> Jesus peace be upon Him is a true prophet. Sent by Allah like Moses,

Abraham, Lot, Noah, Jonah, ph .etc.

> Who were Jesus's parents?

> Jesus is the son of Virgin , and he had no father. Allah created

Jesus.

> Can Jesus, or Mohammed peace be upon them be worshipped?

> No, Allah does not accept that a cow, a person, an angel, a prophet, a

stone, or anything be worshipped in place of him, or even along with Him.

Worship must be to Allah the creator of them.

> Is Allah the same as what Christians call the father?

> Allah is the creator who Jesus worshipped. He is the Creator who spoke to

Moses, and split the sea for Moses, and his followers. That is Allah. But

Allah tells us: " Say Allah is one, He is Perfect, He has never begotten, nor

was He begott, and there is no one equal to Him " .

> Is there a trinity in Islam?

> No. Allah is perfect.

> Do we believe that Allah created the heavens and earth in 6 days?

> Yes, but He did not rest on the seventh day, because He did not get tired.

Allah is perfect He does not get tired, nor does He sleep, eat, go to the

bathroom, feel pain, or die for that matter.

> Can we see Allah?

> Allah is not like the sun. Anyone can see the Sun. But Allah is the most

beautiful. Nothing is as beautiful as Allah. Actually looking at Allah is

the greatest pleasure of the people in Pradise. This pleasure Allah does not

give anyone but the believers. So no one will see Allah before he dies.

> Does Allah see us?

> Allah sees us, and knows everything about us. He knows us better than we

know ourselves. There is not a leaf on a tree that blows away, or stays in

its place except that He knows it. There is not a dry spot, nor a wet spot,

nor a grain in the depths of the earth except that Allah knows it.

> Do we have free will?

> Yes, of course. Allah does not punish us for something we did not do on

our own. But at the same time, our will is not inspire of Allah's will. We

cannot do anything if Allah will not allow it. In other words nothing goes

on in Allah's kingdom without His will.

> Did Allah create Evil?

> Yes, Allah created the good, and the bad. Whatever bad happens to us is

due to our sins. We sin and Allah pardons much of what we do; however, when

something bad happens to us it is our fault, and we are to blame. Bad things

that happen to a person are a chance for that person to reflect, and ask:

" Why is this happening to me? " A chance for a person to return from his sin,

and obey, and worship Allah.

> Do bad things happen to the believers (good people)?

> Yes, they do. But they appear bad to the believers cause they are things

people don't like. Who likes breaking a leg? However, when a bad thing

happens to a believer this believer is patient. He praises Allah in all

circumstances. He knows Allah does not decree something unless it is for his

own good.

> But how can breaking a leg are good for a beleiver?

> Because it is a chance for the believer to think about what he did wrong.

> Also because Allah forgives much of what we do, but those things we are

not forgiven, they are forgiven due to our patience when we are struck by a

calamity. Allah gives us better reward when a problem strikes us on earth if

we are patient. This reward can be on earth, and it can be in Heaven.

> Does Allah hear my prayers?

> Yes.

> Does Allah answer my prayers?

> We know that Allah answers all the prayers of the believers. This can be

in 4 ways:

> 1- Get what we are asking for!

> 2- Get something as good or better!

> 3- We get spared something bad that would have happened otherwise.

> 4- We get rewarded on the day of Judgment with a much greater reward than

what we were asking for on earth.

> When does Allah not answer our prayers?

> * When it is bad for us!

> * When we ask, but not from our heart!

> * When we say: I asked and asked and He did not answer.

> * When we eat, drink, and wear unlawful, food, and clothes, and property

that wa earned either through interest from the bank, or that was stolen, or

if the food was pork, or the like.

> What can I ask of Allah?

> Any thing but don't ask Him to do things like make you a prophet. Cause He

has already said that there will be no more prophets.

> You can ask Allah for guidance. Meaning you can ask Him to show you the

correct religion.

> Who are my best friends?

> Your best friends are the ones that care where you go after you are dead.

This is like the prophets. They cared that we go to heaven, even if it meant

some hardship on earth.

> Who is my worst enemy?

> That would be the devils, whether they are human devils (evil people), or

Jinn devils (like Iblis) The Arabic word for a devil is Shaytan (similar to

Satan). Satan wants us all to go to hell. He wants us to be bad on earth,

even if we get rich, or do lots of wrong things that we appear to enjoy, he

does not mind that. But he wants to make sure we don't go to heaven.

> What is it that keeps us from entering Heaven?

> Worship of anyone other than Allah is the greatest sin. It is called

shirk, and this is not forgiven except through repentance.

> Where is Allah?

> Allah is the highest. He is high above ALL of His creation. He is ascended

upon a Throne, which is greater than the heavens, and the Earth. Much much

much greater than the heavens and the earth. So much greater that the

heavens and the earth could fit in the footstool of the throne, and they

would be like a ring thrown into an open desert. Allah is certainly the

greatest.

> Does Allah look like us?

> No Allah is perfect. He is not like any of His creation. He has told us

that He has Hands, Eyes, a Face, and Foot. But all of these attributes are

befitting to His might and Glory.

> A Muslim does not say a single thing about Allah other than what Allah

says about Himself. We don't say He is like a clover, He got tired, He is

Jealous!

> Allah is Perfect, and Unique.

> What does it mean to believe in Allah?

> It means to believe in Allah in total perfection, and uniqueness.

> It means to believe in His prophets cause they are His, and He sent them.

We cannot pick and choose. A Muslim must believe in all the prophets of

Allah.

> It means to believe in the Angles! We must love them all, we cannot hate

an Angel say, for example, to hate who is charged with rain, and the

vegetation of the Earth, or who is charged with revelation (brings

down the scriptures to the prophets).

> It means to believe in Allah's predestination of good, and bad (relative

to us, but to Allah everything Allah does is good).

> It means to believe in the last day: The day of Judgment.

> When is the Day of Judgment?

> Only Allah knows.

> Are there signs for the day of Judgment?

> Plenty, plenty, plenty. Many have already occurred.

> To name a few,

> Objects will begin to talk.

> There will be much killing. The killer won't know why he killed, and the

guy that was killed won't know why he was killed.

> The Antichrist will come.

> Prophet Jesus son of will return.

> Gog and Magog will be set free.

> The sun will rise from the west (after this one there can be no more

repentance)

> What about non-Muslims do they go to heaven?

> Allah only accepts Islam. He says in the Koran: " Whoever seeks a religion

other than Islam it won't be accepted of him, and he will be one of the

loosers in the hereafter " . I would rather loose anywhere, but not loose in

the hereafter. This is because Hellfire is eternal. It never ends, and we

never die when we go there, if we go there.

> What about someone who never heard of Islam?

> Allah is the most just. Don't even think that we can be nicer than Allah.

Allah is the Most Just, and He said in the Koran " We were not to punish till

having sent a warner " . The " We " here is the majestic we used in Arabic. So

if a person never heard about Islam, and was never warned clearly Allah

would have a special test for that person that He knows is equal to the

chance that person would have had on earth.

> How do we know Islam is the truth?

> It is the only religion that:

> 1- Hold Allah as One, Unique, and Perfect.

> 2- A lonly worship of Allah, not Jesus, not an idol, and not an angel only

Allah.

> 3- The Koran does not contain contradictions.

> 4- The Koran contains scientific facts, which are 1300 years ahead of

their time. The Koran while revealed 1400 years ago contains scientific

facts, which are only now being discovered. It is not in contradiction to

science.

> 5- Allah challenges the world to produce the like of the Koran. And He

says they won't be able to.

> 6- Prophet Mohammed was the most influential man in History. Even a

non-Muslim wrote a book called the 100 most influential men in History, and

Prophet Mohammed was #1. Prophet Jesus was #3. Note even Prophet Jesus was a

prophet sent by Allah. Would Allah allow a false prophet to be so

successful? No. Even the Bible says this in Deuteronomy 18:19. A false

prophet would die!!! Yet Prophet Mohammed did not die till he completely

conveyed, and taught Allah's religion.

> 7- He had many prophecies, and all of his prophecies have come true, or

are still coming true.

> Most importantly is this:

> Allah created us, and we know that we should only worship Him. This is an

instinct Allah has created us with. He did not just leave us, rather He sent

prophets for us. These prophets had miracles as proof. The miracle for us

today is the Koran. There is no other religion that worships only Allah, and

believes in Him as totally perfect, and believes in all of His prophets, and

scriptures.

> Can anyone become a Muslim?

> Yes anyone can. There are two declarations, which are necessary:

> 1- To bear witness that no one deserves to be worship except Allah

> 2- To bear witness that Prophet Mohammed is the Messenger of Allah.

> This makes a person Muslim. But it should be said in Arabic. Next a person

takes a shower, and He/She is a Muslim.

> Then What?

> After a person becomes Muslim he/she is taught about Prayers, Fasting, the

Poor due, Pilgrimage. These are pillars of Islam.

> Then What?

> Muslims are brothers. A Muslim should love for his brother what he loves

for himself. Allah's wealth does not run out, and Allah can provide for us

all. We pray for each other, and love each other, and love for our brothers

and sisters what we love for ourselves.

Dear Tony,

I'm glad they caught the infection and were able to treat it. Sounds awful. Are you in Atlanta right now and trying to get things together to get back to your mom's? I hope you can take your computer, too.

Each first star at night I think of you and we've had some beautiful evenings. The other day, Dave and I were in the parking lot at the store and just stood in the rain to be awed by two full rainbows across the sky. I haven't seen that for quite awhile and still revel in the beauty. Everyone of our group was in my heart at that moment - it was a prayerful moment to be cherished.

Take care,

Amy

Dear Tony,

I am so thrilled for you that you get to spend Mother's Day with your mom this year. Of course when she has come to see you, I think you made everyday a Mother's Day by the special things you did for her like paint her room her favorite color. That was so sweet. As a mom I would want nothing more Than to have my son celebrate the miracle of motherhood with me because he wanted to be there as much as you do.

Bless your trip home and time to rest and heal.

Amy

Hi Tony,

I just wanted to say that I couldn't have said it any better than Beckie.

I am thoroughly in agreement with everthing she said.

God bless you dear Tony,

Dear Tony,

I'm so glad that you and your mom were together for mother's day. I'm sure it was especially special for her since your dad let his violence marr what could be a celebratory day.

You have such personal strength through your beliefs and your determination to be a survivor in this world. I pray for some relief in your dad's pain and violence. I hope that you and your mom can continue to stay together.

With warm thoughts and big hugs

Amy
