Well can you believe it, we are back. As many of you know, Seth's next surgery is scheduled for Monday April 28th at 8 AM. We are only 3 1/2 days away. We are starting to feel the pressure. The hospital has called several times to make sure we are ready and getting ready.
Tomorrow will be Seth's last day at school for at least 3 weeks. The last day of school for the year at PCS is May 21st I think. He may finish the year at home. The teachers and administrators will see to it that he finishes his sophomore year.
Today was my last day at work until May 13. I work with the most amazing people. The women I have bible study, with at work on Thursday's over the noon hour, took the time to lay hands on me and pray for Seth, and our family. That meant SO much to me. As different ones left for the day their final words as they went out the door was, "We'll be praying". You know the neat thing is, I know they will. God has got us covered.
Jeff will work tomorrow and not have to go back in until Wednesday April 30th. He will come back from Iowa on Tuesday afternoon or evening.
Please share the news with everyone to check the blog. It really is my only connection to the outside world. My cell phone doesn't work in the hospital and I won't give out the room phone number until I feel Seth will be able to handle the disturbances and noise from it. (He likes the room to be rather dark and quiet all the time). Remember how the noise from the monitors really bothered him? And please post back. we love to read the comments. I read all of them to Seth. Actually I read and re-read them to myself. They give me great comfort and a lot of joy.
I'll sign off for now. Thanks for caring about us so much. We love you all. Vickie
