A Day of Rest


Gina & I spent the day with Aaron today as he continues to recover from his latest bout with pneumonia.

There are many things contributing to Aaron being so tired. His injury, pneumonia, medication, and change in routine. His days are very uneventful as the amount of PT & OT that he receives is much less than what he was used to. You can only watch Sports Center, All in the Family, & The Beverly Hillbillies so many times. We did get to wheel Aaron around the 4th floor (first time out of his room since his arrival) and even down to check out the first floor (with permission from his doctor) this afternoon. It was kind of comical as Aaron and his groupies (Gina & I , 4 visitors, & 1 medical staff) paraded around the hospital.

Visitors today included Isaiah, Shannon, her mom, & Micah. Diane popped in as well for a quick visit over her lunch.

Aaron did eat well today and has actually gained a pound or two back.

We always ask for & welcome your prayers for Aaron but please keep Jaime & Tory in your prayers as well, as Jaime deals with work, being a mom (and a good one I might add), and a fiance (and a good one I might add). The added distance between them since Aaron’s most recent move has added a degree of difficulty to the effort. Pray for safe travel & strength as Jaime continues to amaze us with her capacity to love.

 Keep the prayers coming! We feel the power!

    Ern,

    If anyone is looking for me (or not looking for me), I’m at home. I am not sitting in the room across the hall. Wonder how long I would have been there until she remembered I was still there. Probably until she wanted to tell me to do something. How bout it!!!

    See you soon!! I love you!! You too, Dine!

  • Jaime

But everyone please keep Aaron’s parents as well as the rest of his family who has been by his bedside in your prayers as well!This has been quite the direction change in all of our lives. And THANK YOU for all your prayers…. none of us, especially Aaron, could do it without you!

    Greg, that was so sweet, it brought tears to my eyes. Jaime and Tory are so blessed to be part of Aaron’s family and extended family! As her mother, I would like to thank all of you for taking care of “my girls” when they are with you!
    Kisses and hugs to Aaron, you’re the best and we love you!

    Jaime,

    I will lift you and Tory up in prayer. Greg, thanks for the reminder to keep Jaime and Tory in our prayers. You asked, and it is done! She is doing an amazing job, but I know that it can take a toll on you after a while. I pray God continues to give her strength, peace and safety.
