Grateful!


This has been a day of gratefulness. For health, for family, for prayers, for good nurses, for kindness, for familiarity where no words are needed. It is a humbling experience to spend time in a surgical waiting room of a hospital. There is a lot of nervous chatter and anxiety in the air....fear of the unknown. One can almost see the minutes tick away on the clock. There have been three helicopters whisking in and out, delivering pain and suffering to hope and hopefully life. When it was our turn to speak to the surgeon, the once crowded room was down to three families. The sun had set, the shifts were changing and we were grateful.
