Good news and not so good news...
Baby Hadassah will be coming home tonight. We are all breathing a collective sigh of relief today. Thank you all for your love and prayers. We are so looking forward to having her whole, healed and home.
I, however - not so much - after going for another x-ray and finding that after six weeks that my bone is simply refusing to knit itself back together like normal, it has been determined that surgery is in order to pin it or screw it or something of that nature.
Surgery is set for Monday morning at nine. I have no idea what the recovery time is going to look like - but at this point we are projecting six weeks. Blah. I am glad that we are not just waiting around - that we are being proactive - but surgery is never a fun thing to face...a bit discouraging that this keeps me from being mobile for another six weeks...In keeping with my natural optimism however, I am trying to look at the benefits long term...
So there you go. I'll keep you updated.

Crappy news about your foot... but as you said, better to continue making steps to get better, than to sit around hemming and hawing about it. I'm sure you'll come through the surgery with flying colors!
And yay for Hadassah coming home! Woot!
PS. What's the status on the hair-shaving money-raising?
I'm glad that Hadassah is getting to come home whole!!
I can't belive you went for a vacation and now have to have surgery!! I'll be praying for you!
Great song btw.
I'm so glad she's coming home. UGH about surgery. I'm so sorry. However, they can do wonders in surgery these days. Perhaps you'll have a cool I Robot foot like Will Smith's arm and lung! That would be cool. Right?
so thrilled about the baby. so bummed about your foot.
Praise Jesus!!
well...let's just pray for that foot too!!!
I'm sorry I missed you yesterday.
This is similar to the camera I have, but honestly, you should ask Lizzy or Terese which ones they have. Theirs have more focus options.
Oh no, surgery sinks, but you are right it's better to just get going on things. Man, Monday is coming quick. I'll be thinking about you. Hang in there sweetie. We will keep you company during your down time in xanga land, hehe!
Happy news about Baby Hadassah! What a relief.
Wonderful news about Hadassah!! PTL!
So sorry to hear that your foot isn't healing....bummer ~ I'll pray and remember you on Monday, too. The cool thing about that is that since I'm 8 hours ahead of you, I can have you good and "washed" in prayer before you even get up.
