This is the day the Lord has made and it was a gorgeous day. I am back among the living and I’m thankful for that. Once again God has provided with good medical professionals and facilities, and a praying herd that is so faithful and generous with the prayers. We went to the ER Sunday night (12/28) and through my muddled brain I heard stuff like, “surgery,” “radiation,” “cement,” “bone cancer,” and such. All I could think was “Oh great, one more thing to get a handle on.” Fortunately, I didn’t have too long to think about that since I had some really good pain meds and was in and out of sleep much of the night. Once again, my nurses were the very best and we knew that St. Thomas Mid-Town is more than just a job. They are caring compassionate ladies who really want the well-being of the patient to be the priority. I have a funny story about prove that – I’ll save for the later time. We had so many people come by to see us, pray with us and just visit. Thank you, each one, for just being there for us – again. God, the Father, came to visit us in the hospital, just like it says in the Bible. I understand the Meal Train kept running on schedule. I’m sorry I couldn’t enjoy the food. I can assure you the food at the hospital is not something to write home about. Thank you for keeping Mark, Weslee, and Nathan nourished during that time. You are the best. The well-decorated, best-cooked trainer were named Marte Beaty, Sandra Gentry, and tonight Rachel Moody Kelly and her mom Lauryn Moody brought great lasagna. And they brought Noah, Rachel’s son, with them. He found the toy box quickly and he had a good time playing; we had a good time watching him and visiting. I imagine we will visit again. My heart is so full of emotions at this time. So much happened the last weeks of 2014 that make my heart sad. Our precious friend Vern Powers died before Christmas and then beautiful lovely lady Gayle Oldham passed away shortly after. Sometimes it is hard to take it all in, but God gives us grace and mercy to help us through. We keep needing the grace and He keeps giving it to us. Thank you Father, for providing. This is all my muddled brain (yes, I still have it) has tonight. There are so many hymns to joy, thanksgiving, love, hope, peace, provisions that I can’t settle on one. I’ll write another update tomorrow and “talk” a little more. Until then, always know that we love you, are thankful for you, pray for you, and are blessed by you. Hugs and love to you, Honey and Mark
