Steve and I spent part of our weekend in the emergency room. Saturday afternoon he came in from the garden to gently tell me that his feeding tube had come out and we needed to head to the ER. So, we headed out. Since we were on a bit of a time rush we did not have to wait long in the waiting room. However, they could not find a feeding tube in the hospital! It took them at least an hour to finally track one down! Then they finally put it in. We had to wait so they could do x-rays to make sure it was in correctly. Then we were finally on our way home again. The good news is Steve now has a brand new, squeaky clean tube that works perfectly! Now we do not have to go in to the hospital on Thursday to have a new one put in. Of course, a trip to the emergency room is never inexpensive, but we are so glad it was an easy fix : )
Today, we went to the funeral of someone who has come to be an important part of our lives. Otto Hall lost his 12 year fight against brain cancer on Friday night. He was a special man who brought joy and happiness to many lives. He will be sorely missed here on earth. We look forward to the day we will see him again in heaven. Please keep his wife, Karen, and their kids, Daniel and Lynsey, in your prayers.
The funeral hit so close to home for all of us. We are working to keep our focus on appreciating each day that God gives us. As always, I pray that you are able to spend time being thankful too. God bless you all.
