Hurray for the good news Shaun!
Welcome home Lynn! Checking in to the cheerful updates from your sweet JJ have truely been rare bright spots in my days here lately!

On Saturday the doctors told us they didn't expect MIL to survive the night ~ Monday DH and his sister and brother broken-heartedly made the decision to take her off the forced-air breathing machine (per her previously stated wishes)~ Tonight she's holding her own...and watching American Idol! She's not out-of-the-woods by any means...but the wonderful doctors, nurses, and staff are delightedly flabbergasted and DH and I are exaustedly anticipating a full night's sleep in the same bed! (I've been sleeping (HA!) in a recliner at MIL's bedside since last Friday.)

Miracles abound and my life is overflowing with grace today!

Blessings,
Lenora
