his face was strained, eyes wide, and he even raised up from the bed on his good side to provide emphasis on the word 'GREAT!'

he wasn't as verbal as when i was up less than two weeks prior, and some of his reactions and statements were delayed, but there was no mistaking that he KNEW we were there and that we cared.

it was a mini family reunion at the hospital. my 8, in total, 4 from OH, 2 from NY, 2 from MD, my sister and her two daughters from MD, and my mom, from NJ.

we laughed and told stories and caught up in the family lounge / waiting area, which was right outside his room, while he slept.



peace & blessings,

I'm an advocate for working smarter, not harder. If you just
focus on working hard you end up making someone else rich and
not having much to show for it. (c) mad
