I know that many of you are new to our blog, so welcome! Justin and I enjoy blogging about our lives, but I know that many of you have just joined us for surgery. So, please stay tuned for the rest of our lives as well! Justin is doing well. He has rested most of the day. He also sat up in a chair for an HOUR! He said his chest pain was fine, but he couldn't get his neck comfortable in that chair ( because he wanted to SLEEP!) He has been a great patient and has his normal humor. He also has comments that make little to no sense and probably won't remember most of this! Funny Comments from Justin today - Mrs. Anita was talking to Justin and finally said, "I think you're sleeping, so I'm going to leave you along. " to which Justin replied (With eyes closed) - "I can multitask!" Mom was cracking jokes by his bed and said, "I guess you don't think this is funny." And I said, "That's ok , right Justin, that is how we tal...
Justin has been moved to a room this morning! He is doing great! All of the doctors and nurses are very excited about his progress. Before leaving ICU, they removed most of his “stuff” (except for one IV). This allow him to move around more freely, which is the next step. Justin will be getting up and walking around this afternoon. He is also just starting to eat again. If you think about it, he hasn’t had anything since Monday night supper. So, it will be like learning how to eat after the stomach virus. We are praying this doesn’t make him sick. They will also be giving pain medicine by mouth, so we are also praying that his pain continues to stay under control! He is making such great progress! I think he is far ahead, especially with moving around, than he was this far out of last year with his surgery! That is exciting! Praising the Lord for this! Loving your comments, I read them to Justin as he is...
Well you will notice (assuming I get internet and get to post this blog) that it is in fact 12:17am. If you know me at all, you know that I am not awake at this time by choice! Also keep in mind that it is technically 1:17 where I am. Let me walk you through the day . . . Mrs. Anita and Mr. Jimmy arrived in Ecru around 8am to pick us up. The ride to the Memphis airport was quick and talkative. We arrived at the airport around 9:30. We unloaded all the bags at the curb and the men went to park the car. Just trying to get a jump start on the day, I went to the ticket counter (where there was no line!) to see if I could get us checked in. The man let me check all the bags and bumped us up to an earlier flight. He was afraid that due to the weather, our 12:45 flight would be delayed. When we got the gate we found out that the flight we were put on was also delayed. The original flight was late getting to Charlotte, ...
