Day 4...You won't believe...

Everyone,
Well, I was trying to figure out why there was a miracle happening in front of my eyes when it came to me…God had an emergency somewhere else so he said “I have to finish this first before I head on to other business.”
As you may have come to learn I do exaggerate a bit, but what has occurred in the last 24 hours can only be described as that…miraculous! Lynn got essentially a full night of sleep, the pain is by no means gone, but well managed, and she was literally up all day walking the halls, doing stars, doing her pulmonary stuff, doing her PT, ordering and eating full meals and joking and laughing. She even yelled at me because I forgot her phone so she could text her kids! She kicked her family out so she could watch “Ugly Betty” (I didn’t have the heart to tell her it was a rerun)! What an incredible day. They are talking discharge in the immediate future (tomorrow?) “She’s back”!!

I am not pretending there are not going to be “issues” that we are going to have to deal with, but clearly this was a huge hurdle and Lynn has almost cleared it (I’m also good at clichés).
Although Lynn will be home soon and I’m sure everyone is dying to see her, she still can’t have visitors. She has made great strides, but she still has some healing to do and she needs her rest. We will talk about care for her when she comes home, but we will address that in a few days.
We cannot say thank you loud enough or enough times. Although I’m pretty good at Cannon Law, I’m a little weak on Scriptures... but I'm sure it's there someplace...Heal the Sick…you all can take credit for what has occurred! God bless you all! Also, big hugs to the "Angels" who have taken care of her at the hospital...
Love to all of you,
Lynn and Tim

  6. Lynn,
    Finally I've read your blog- you will be shocked to learn that Tom(long green line-long red line-however you classify him) kept forgetting to forward it to me!

    Sounds like you are doing well and you continue to inspire all of us. Just know you are in my thoughts all of the time and I mean all of the time- just ask Tom!

    Heard Brad was here over the holidays- did he ask about me? Close your eyes...picture "the yoga move" See- I knew that would make you smile- now don't laugh because I bet it hurts when you laugh!

    Love Ya,
    Mol
