Monday Evening 10.09.06

Good evening to all! Marty has had a good day, but not quite as good as it has been. She has had the med for the sore in her mouth two times and will have it at least one more time before bed time. She has found her walks harder to do and that she is more fatigued during and after. In fact, this afternoon she slept for a couple of hours, that until yesterday, she had not done since coming into the hospital. She ate breakfast and lunch because she had to, but said that she really enjoyed dinner. You see I fixed it out at the motor home and brought it in for both of us. I fixed a steak on the grill, baked potato, and a frozen veg. then she got from the hospital some bread sticks and cheese cake. So as you can see it did indeed make for a nice dinner. We are doing our best to make the best out of everything! And we certainly thank you for your support and help.

After I finished and posted the blog last night, we had three visitors - Jill, Bill and Susan. Also, Wally was by in the afternoon but Marty was sleeping and I was out of the room. And today we have been visited by Kyle, John, Pat, and Patricia. It sure is good to see everyone and have the personal connect with our friends and faith community. There is nothing like the love, grace, and support that comes in that way. Of course, the blog comments and the emails, cards and phone calls are just awesome as well. Praise the Lord! Thank you very much.

I think that kind of covers things for today. We hope that you have had a great day and will give God the praise and thanks for it - for each and everything that has come in your path and life today - as we will do tonight as well. Praise and thanks be to God.

Marty and Jack
