| At the ER on December 17 wondering what was going on. |
Well. It's December 26, 2012 and we just spent our second Christmas in a row as guests in one of our state's prestigious homes of healing, other wise known as hospitals. Yale New Haven Hospital has been treating Daniel for Pancreatitis since we were admitted on December 17th. Just having come home from his spinal fusion, it was not thrilling to end up back here.
In a nutshell, Christmas Eve... I stayed home with Sarah and Thomas. Got the gifts done, set it all up, missed Daniel and John terribly. Lit a luminary to remember the ones lost on December 14. And felt sad as a light mist of snow fell upon the town.
Christmas was special simply because we all have eachother. Even if we can't completely be together we know that we are going to be soon. I hope.
Daniel went into surgery to have a pic line put in (into his arm) so we can feed him nutrition through an IV. He did much better with the pic line procedure than he did with the Central line procedure last week.

I've had to deal with many emotional mind fogs. I was lost and couldn't pray. The hospital sent me an angel, her name was Kristin the hospital chaplain. And she brought me a book of Psalms and the New Testament to help me cope. Its been helping...
Yale New Haven Childrens Hospital. We have spent most of December here. A December the world will never forget. And we are still here. Daniel is still in great pain with re introduction of feeds. And this hardship on our separated family is making us grow weary.
"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
