I spent all day yesterday with Rags even though it seemed to fly by. Mostly it seemed that way because I wont be back up there to see him for 2 weeks. I am leaving on tuesday to go see my grammy in Illinois. Driving there. My mother, my sister and three of her four kids from back home and her grandson there too. we are having a mini family party thing because my grammy turns 95 this year. I feel a little guilty leaving, but we planned this thing long before Scott got sick, and we never thought he would be in hopsicle for 3 monthes and wouldn't be home when I left for this trip. God, however, works how he works.. And I am SOOOO grateful for how he works! Look how much grace he has shown Scott and I.. how much love from all of you that he blesses us with!
We ordered in pizza and spaghetti and shared with all the staff on his floor.. His nurses Gemma and Johanna promised me to make sure he eats and stays strong while I am gone. His "Coach" in therapy promised to keep him working hard... He walked around a lot with the walker for me yesterday. I followed him with the wheelchair in case he got tired. He did so good.. He makes me proud how hard he tries!
I promised him I would text every time I stop to pee on my road trip. And as most of you know, that probably means a text every ten minutes.. LOL..
love to everyone, woobie
