Better living through chemistry

Thanks to the miracle of drugs, Dad finally slept last night! Yay! I think it also helped that the anxiety of waiting for the eye appointment was over. At any rate, we all got a pretty good night's sleep and we know how critical that is for Dad to heal and continue to recover.

When I posted to the blog yesterday I looked back at the entry from before Dad came home and how exhausted he was going around the house with his PT team. It made me so happy to think about how now walking around the house, getting up and down the stairs, and getting up and down from different surfaces is sooooo much easier. It's so exciting to see.

I appreciate so much all your kind offers of help. You have know idea how much it means to us to know that so many are at the ready to do whatever we need. Thanks to my sweet cousin (and her husband) who came over tonight to help Dad with his wardrobe. He's lost so much weight (and oddly enough isn't interested in being a trendy guy with baggy pants) and she's a expert seamstress. Truly, these "little things" are so incredibly huge to us. You all are such a blessing!

Hope round II of the root canal went as okay as those things can go. I was thinking of you and praying for you throughout the day. I hope you felt God with you. Love you.
