Deb had a good night. I'm writing this from her bedside.
This morning she laid in her hospital bed and read some scripture for the two of us. She had trouble focusing on the print which she normally could see plainly. Her voice-normally that of a high school math teacher-was very weak and missing some syllables.
She chose to read Psalm 25 and 26. I asked her which verses spoke to her this morning. She selected Ps 26:3-4 which says "you keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever,for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.
Beside the bed is a dual picture frame with two 8x10s of sepia tone childhood photos of Deb. As she lay here I could see her pix and her. As I studied both I found it remarkable how her features from ages 2-5 are still there. She was a beautiful child and she still is!
Stephen spent the night an made Deb her favorite cheese toast.
Today insurance and banking issues face us.
Blessings all!
