Thursday, March 11

Finally home today. Good day. Jeff is as comfortable as possible. Physical therapy will be no picnic, but necessary. Besides a focus on healing, our new focus will now be controlling his diabetes. We know little of the details of how to go about this. Guess we will have to learn as we go. His blood will have to be tested twice a day and medications are prescribed. Food is another issue. It’s far more complicated than just avoiding sugar. It’s been two weeks today. Phew. Can’t believe it. It’s both scary and exciting how much a life can change in a just a second or two. Good news is that it only changes as our Heavenly Father allows it. Good enough for me!

Discombobulated musings:

I have been fighting a head cold for three days now. Now that we’re home…..physically, it feels like everything that has been held back is crashing in. If you’ve ever been surprised by something, like a surprise party, and you stand there sputtering, with your hands outstretched, looking around for an explanation for what’s going on, then you know how I feel today. Augh…there are so many details, medications, questions, tasks to perform, responsibilities demanding attention. Where to start? OR, where to hide? Just seems overwhelming and unavoidable. I’m already so tired. How in the world will I find the“umph” to be what I need to be? To do what I need to do? Well, I know the Lord is my answer. How will HE do it? How will HE supply what I need? Ball’s in His court, but I don’t want to play…..OK I really do want to play. More than anything I want to serve and be used. If this is how I can best be used, then let me stay in the game. I want to be there, I want to see Him victorious even if it’s just in my own heart and in my relationship with Him. To be used in the lives of others is just icing on the cake (sugar-free icing, please)!
