oops, it came out sicdeways. Sorry. Anyway... how Seth looks now!!!!! Praise God!!!!!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there. The Eubank Family wishes you a Perfect Day. Relax and enjoy your family.
Everything is going great here. Seth has taken the car, picked up a couple of close friends and has driven to another great friends home (Cassie) to hang out for the evening. Yep, you read it right. He is "out". What a difference from last Saturday night when we were celebrating getting our own room in the hospital, and Seth was barely eating! I will especially be celebrating tomorrow!!!
I will have all three of my boys here. We will all be together at church, then Nick and Aubrey will go to her parents home to grill steaks and then here at 3:00 for dessert. Along with all my guys will be Jeff's parents, and his two brothers, their wives and families, and my sister Mary. Almost 25 if everyone can make it.
Until we meet here again, May God bless you and keep you safe. Love, Vickie
PS To all the kids reading this blog. Be especially thankful for your Mom's tomorrow and really love up on them OK. Love, Vic

Hi Everyone ~ If there still is an everyone. There really isn't much traffic on the blog since we came home. Yesterday was a good day for Seth. I think he was tired. He hasn't napped at all since we came home. He is doing good though, everyday he seems a little stronger. Hi appetite is getting much better too. Physically he is healing at a much faster rate than the doctors had predicted. We are very thankful for that. I may post later. I have errands to run this morning. Bye, Vickie

An end to a great day.

Seth had a great first day home. He relaxed. Actually had an appetite. Played a little XBox Guitar Hero, and just chilled.
Our friend Peggy brought us the most delicious dinner of Roast Pork Tenderloin (fantastic and Peggy is a vegetarian??), smashed red potatoes, a beautiful salad and brownies! Is that incredible? Seth along with Jeff and I really enjoyed it.
Seth watched some TV after dinner and Jeff and I walked. I really got my walking in today. I did 8 miles this morning and 7 miles tonight. My hip sockets are BURNIN' baby.
Then my friend Carla came by with lots of goodies, Popsicle, sherbet, cheesecake from a local bakery, sweet bread for breakfast, a beautiful picture frame with one of my favorite pictures of her family. It was great.
Now Seth has had his evening meds and I'M ready to hit the sack.
I thoroughly enjoyed my day, and I know Seth did too. Thanks to all of you for everything. Love to all, The Eubank Family.
Here are the pictures. #1 was taken the morning or the surgery. He was ready to be taken to pre-op where they would start the IV' etc.. #2 Seth on Day #2 and Day#3 and Day #4. #3 and #4 Seth's first food after 6 days! Oh and he really enjoyed it too. The post below is Seth suffering through one of many of our little 4 yr. old room mates bad times. He had they several times a day. He really wanted to go home! Seth spent many hours trying to sleep like this. Note the morphine pump still very close by. This was Very difficult to say the least. When they got Seth and Jeff a different room, it was such a blessing!!! And the last picture is Seth's kidnapping. This area was just outside Seth's room window and 3 floors down. If you scroll down the below the WALK pictures you will see where I attempted this morning to put the pictures on and realized I had to upload in reverse order. Oh well ya live and learn. I am a total embarrassment to my techie kids.


Photo Journal of the past week.


I thought that since it is such a beautiful day today that I would take all of you along with me for my walk this morning. These are a few of the sights we got to see. The trees are budding and some are in full bloom. The sights and smells overwhelmed my senses. Our God is so extremely incredibly awesome, is He not? Look what He has done for us. Jeff and I are so very blessed to have all that we have. I am not in anyway referring to material things. I am talking about God things. Words can not describe how full we feel. Thanks for being on this journey with us through the very difficult, heart wrenching walks to the beautiful walk we took together today. I will try to keep the blog up over the next few weeks. Please stay on the journey with us. The best is yet to come. We love you all. Vickie
