Day 7. Restoration.

To me, the human body has always been a crazy thing.
Mostly what we see on the outside...
Kinda wide or maybe a little on the thin side.
Drop dead gorgeous or well, you know...he's really fun to be with.
The basketball coach's dream player or directionally challenged.
Sharp dressed, thrown together, awkward, poised, easy to be with or, not.


But all these things just can't capture the absolutely amazing thing that is the human body.
Mine's a stunner.
Not the outside.  Nope, I'm talking about what's happening RIGHT NOW inside the core of my body (and yours too).  Something that was broken yesterday or maybe had even died (a cell, a connection, some tissue?) is being knit back together.
All in a place we cannot see or label other than calling it what it is...
MIRACULOUS!


And because of this miraculous, hidden healing taking place in me - it looks like I'm going home tomorrow.
What?
A week ago today I was just waking up in the ICU and tomorrow - just 8 days later - I will walk back into our home and start the process of whatever is next.  Lots of naps.  A little reading.  Another nap.  More than 20 minutes with the kids and HOME.
Sounds pretty all-right to me, for sure.


As Kelly said yesterday in his prayer section -- we can't thank you enough.
Your prayers, food, notes, beautiful flowers, thoughtful gestures to the kids, pieces of borrowed furniture, and just your generous outpour of LOVE.
We are blessed and grateful.


Please continue your prayers, trust and hope.
This support continues to be a platform to stand on that is unshakeable.
And now, before I get into this hospital bed for the last night (unless something odd happens, which could happen), let me just say that we're praying for you too.  


When you have looked your brokenness in its face, asked God to stand with you in it, and then walked toward it, you are stronger.  Period.  So, we'll pray that way for you -- if you'll do the same for us every day.


We'll keep you posted!!
Tired but grateful,
Suze
