Daniel 3:17-18

Daniel 3:17-18 "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up."

A Long Day

It is 8:30 pm and Steve is retiring for the night. He has had a very full day considering everything his body went through just yesterday. The first really good news is that we now have a room of our own. It ended up being rather fun, because about 15 minutes after Grandma arrived with our two daughters, they let us know that a room was available. So our daughters were able to see Steve in the room he was in for the first day and then help him move to his nicer private room. Steve's second walk was walking down the hall with his daughters while they helped shift our belongings to the new room. (He had done a shorter one a couple hours earlier.)
After the girls had left, Steve's friend Mark showed up to visit. This gave me a chance to go use the shower and get some dinner in me. Steve got his third walk in during Marks visit. This was his longest walk so far. It finally got things moving so that some of the gas that has been bloating his stomach could release. That has been about the only thing that has really made him uncomfortable so far. Anyway, between all his visitors, sitting up in a chair for most of the day, and his three walks, he is pretty worn out. Hopefully it will help him to have a good nights rest. I'm pretty beat myself. I think I'll join him. Good night everyone.

  2. I am glad the girls got to go the hospital. The private room is a relief I'm sure, and the shower, etc. too. Glad all is going well. Sweet Dreams.

  4. Good to hear that things are still going well Carla.
    Tell Steve to go at his own pace and definitely not to try to run before he can walk (properly)....:-))

    Have been thinking about him lots since the op and am keeping everything crossed that his recovery continues to be as positive as it has been so far.

    Much luv to you all xxx
