A Full Week in....

It has been a full week since this journey began.  M has work to do, but she loves her work, maybe not this type of work but it is important.  Her eyes are open at times looking far away.  She is fidgeting a bit more, they say her fever might be breaking.  Hopefully she is turning the corner so we only have 10 things on the “punch list” instead of many.  I can tell you she is receiving EXCELLENT care from her Team.  They are very positive about how she is doing, but rest is important in the healing process.

My Mother was an ICU Nurse and she loved the work: challenging cases to turn around and get them on a healing path.  My Sister, Angela, witnessed Mom’s dedication to the patients she took care of when she too worked at the hospital.  Compassion, encouragement, mental strength and dedication to the art of healing is what it takes.

So heal Melissa heal your body, let it do its magic.  Our bodies are fascinating machines and know what needs to be done.

Sorry I don’t have anything more clever to say.  My sense of humor seems to be spotty like the internet signal at 308 when we want to watch Netflix.  Better call Optimum, they have it AWL under control.....?

*To AWL well wishers and care giving people, our refrigerators are full of food.  We probably have enough body fuel to outlast another attack from General Santa Anna. So until further notice or special request we have food to eat.  Thank you so much for your love, thoughtfulness and generosity.
