Jayde is sleeping, snoring even! She has done very well. We give the credit to
God, and all of our prayer warriors out there. She was even able to walk to the bathroom
earlier, about 9:30 pm. The initial
attempt was iffy. She got very dizzy and
then nauseous and had to lie back down.
The nurse brought some anti-nausea medicine, and after a little while
she was ready to try again. This time she
was able to stand up, walk to the bathroom, take care of business and return to
bed. Pretty amazing, I thought, for this
soon after surgery. She is very groggy
from the pain medication, but coherent and alert when awake. I don’t think she is in much pain, and has
not used the pain pump button except for just a few times.
Our pastor surprised us by stopping by for a while,
today. It was really a blessing to
us. He just happened to be in the
neighborhood, checking in on his mother.
He was able to pray with us and chat some. He has had a lot to deal with the last few
days. He could use our prayers,
too. Some of the tasks of a pastor are
easy and joyful, some are difficult and distressing. The Lord is there with them all, but as our
earthy shepherd, a large burden is sometimes laid upon his shoulders. We love you Gary, hang in there.
Sorry, no picture for this post. It is dark now. Maybe tomorrow!
