Loooonnggg story, short. We made it home last night about 11:30! It was a little tough, but so worth it to love on our girls and wake up in our own bed! Here's our banner the girls hung for us. That clock needs a new battery.
I need just a minute here to brag on my girls. They are so sweet and brave and I am so proud of them. They really hung in there the last 9 days. Thanks for praying for them too! Thanks to my parents for being right next door. Literally and figuratively!
Our first day home has been restful. I spent the day cleaning up a little and doing a couple loads of laundry. Oh yeah, and had a great nap. David rested well, got out and walked a few times, and has eaten several small meals with no adverse reactions! I think he is past that part, but he is understandably cautious!
We return to MDA in 4 weeks for a follow up to surgery and to meet with the oncologist.
Please continue to pray for complete healing, no set backs, and vaccine group! Also shrinkage or disappearance of lung nodules! And NO spreading anywhere else!
I thank God for each one of you. Thank you for being so very faithful in your prayers and hugs and cards and gifts. I can not imagine how we would have made it through this without you!
And all glory and praises to God.
Thank you for loving us!
I am soo happy y'all are home with your girls!! I can only imagine how much they missed y'all. Hugs and prayers for Martha and Ross also. So thankful they could focus their attention on the girls while u focused on my brother. So wish I had the same with my upcoming surgery. I cont to pray for ya'll day and night. Give David a big hug for me. Once again, Melinda, thank u for this blog. Without this I wouldn't have a clue what was going on with my big brother.
