Surviving...

Once again, I appreciate the concern and prayers from all of you. Lou is still battling. Her breathing is better. She was moved to a long term hospital facility. We just gotta figure out about her mental status. That is the really hard part. But that is in God's hands now. I am wore out and Terri is about ready to drop as well. This is really been difficult on all of us but no one ever said any of it was going to be a breeze. Like the saying goes... Faith makes things possible... not easy. But faith is what I have and that is what I will continue to follow and adhere to... Right now I'm just putting one foot in front of the other. And trying to fight off what may be bronchitis... Life is such a hoot! Just please keep us in your prayers and I will try to update here a bit more frequently than I have been. I don't facebook... I don't tweet. I just do this and keeping up with this is a challenge most of the time. I appreciate your patience with me. Spent a much needed weekend with the gal pal. I got very invigorated by simply laying on the couch with my head on her lap and her running her fingers through my hair, telling me that we're going to get through all of this stuff happening. I fell asleep knowing that no matter what, we were going to be okay. Maybe not super fantastic, but sometimes okay is good enough...

I can understand how tough it is for all of ya'll. May Lou soon be better. It has been kinda rough here the last couple of weeks. Ken just getting out of the hospital and a couple of days later here I do getting down in my back again. Been having to use the walker a couple of weeks now.Better than being in a wheelchair though. My daughter came yesterday and brought a bunch of groceries, today she cooked lunch. Cleaned the fridge really good yesterday, now she will be tired to have to go back to her teachers job tomorrow. Prayers for you family. Hugs to all of you.Thanks for your comment and prayers. Helen
