Well a very quiet day here. Mitten battles continue. She is lulling me into a false detente but I am not buying it. I am viewing her clear desire to have the trach out as a positive sign of awareness. I know I would want it out if I were becoming more aware. Fortunately the respiratory folks say she is a stellar lung patient so her trach downsize is planned for Tuesday. A key step to making it go away and resolving the problem.
Just periods of exercise and rest today in anticipation of our journey tomorrow to the medical center. Wish me luck. Apparently this is my payback for all those years I chuckled at the ladies hauling a big bag of supplies capable of covering every contingency for their children. I will be one of those ladies tomorrow and probably enjoying it. Lets hope I need none of it although after 4 weeks of my crash nursing classes I do have a few nifty things to show off.
Still new little actions from the girlfriend. Pain in her arm is even more clear. Sorry Donna but that pain is a good sign on the awareness road.
I'm sure I'll have some good bits tomorrow. till then, prayers .........

Bob and Donna,
ReplyDeleteThis is Bill McDonald over in Lafayette. I just received news about your accident yesterday. We are so sorry to hear about the accident and the resulting struggles. Kathy and I are very intimate with God's healing and Grace and comfort that pours out more abundantly that we can ever explain. Please know that you and Donna have immediately been put in our prayer list and that of many that we know.
I was thinking last night of meeting you guys in 1978 when I went to work for MOC and watching you grow into an amazing family.
Praying for continued healing for you and amazing healing for Donna. Peace and Grace.
Bill and Kathy McDonald
