More wonders

Thanks to everyone who supported the raffle in the last post.  The draw is on the weekend and Sam will contact you and I will post the winner here too.

I just sat down and have completely forgotten what I was going to post about!!  That is probably because I am sitting in complete chaos.

We have been going thru each room and sorting every single item.  Hamish, thankfully, is the master at such things.  I just look at it and get overwhelmed and want to cry with all the stuff we have.  He organises it into piles being Keep and Throw Out.   Legend.   I come back and the floor is empty and there are two piles.  Awesome.

Had a nice chat with Sam’s mum Shirley last night.  So completely amazing Sam is home consider how desperate things were for him at the start.  I remember being overwhelmed (sensing a theme?) with just doing TPN and one med for Aria.  The Davy’s do TPN, milk feed into his tum (not quite but I forget the letter combo GJ? JG? NG?) and oxygen and 5 meds! Wow, those are some dedicated and amazing parents.

Less wondrous is the current state of Aria’s health.  She is still spiking little temps and is waking from 4am wanting to get up and unable to sleep.  Sounds familiar.  Then at 6am she see the sun come up and that’s it- time to get up!!  Joy.  It’s really hard to know what to do.  No point taking her in to hospital for a temp of 37.4 but it isn’t easy knowing she isn’t well.  And how much we encourage her to keep on with daily activities.

We will keep praying, God can and does do miracles, just look at Sam 🙂
