I'm Back...

I'm sorry. It's been such a busy couple of weeks, I completely forgot I had a blog. It's a little embarassing, but it's the truth. Things are going well, we continue to see much improvement in Tad and his recovery, we have heard good news in regards to his genetic testing, and we are greatly cheered by this. He's feeling very well, and we are pleased. I had a setback with my cold and sinus infection, so I'm going through round two of antibiotics. Hopefully this will kick it. I've been sick for 4 solid weeks. That's plenty long enough.

I had a bout of craft-itis this afternoon, and this is what I've come up with. The design is not mine, but I'm pleased with my efforts.

Home Again

My sweetie and I are home from the hospital, where we spent all of last week. He got excellent care, and is feeling very well. He has lots of energy, and very little pain. It is SO good to be home, and sleep in our own bed. I just read my previous post. I was VERY tired when I wrote that. There really isn't much sleeping going on in hospitals. We've been making up for that at home. We both feel so much better, now, especially since I developed a very nasty sinus infection while I was there. I got some meds and am starting to respond to them, so we are both recovering nicely. We are so grateful for excellent doctors, nursing staff, friends and family who pray for us on a daily basis. We are feeling the love. Thank you all.

Here

 
We are here. We've been here all week. It's been a long, busy week. Tad had surgery on Tuesday, and he's been recovering ever since. He tries to rest, but as soon as he gets into some good sleep, someone comes into his room, wanting to check his vitals, draw his blood, give him meds, calls or texts, or tries to find some other way to disturb him. There is no resting in hospitals. The surgery went well. We still have to wait a couple weeks to get the lab & pathology reports, and also the genetic screening results, but we feel pretty good about how things have been going. We still have faith that he will have a full and complete recovery, since that is what we've been promised, but it's probably just going to be a longer road than we had first anticipated. Three words that keep swirling in my brain are Faith, Grace & Courage. Three more are Sleep, Sleep and Sleep. I guess I crave what I don't have, or have less than I need.
