Gratitude

We still have a complete in-home 'hospital' setup with hospital bed, hospital portable toilet, lift chair,etc. We have a well-used walker. Supplies are stashed here and there. As we live in our home, there are reminders all around us that show where we were a few months ago and where we are now. Not so long ago, getting Deb into the hospital bed took about :45 minutes. Now she crawls in like everyone else except for the wedge cushion and extra pillows.

Our lifestyle still has limitations and restrictions, but we are so grateful for the progress made. I tell folks that if it never got any better than it is now, that would be wonderful compared to where we were a few months ago.

Many friends have blessed us in our journey. The sun room project that so many helped with is now the main living space for Deb where she spends the majority of her time. Many of you helped Deb in and out of Gracie, or with fuel bills, or flying us back and forth. Many cleaned house and yard.

To each of you: heartfelt thanks!

Praise God for each of you!
