After another tranquil morning at the beach yesterday, we made the 3 hour drive home. I went straight to the hospital to see my dad.
Dad is doing really well. He finally seems like himself again. His youngest sister, Zell, came by tonight and the three of us had so much fun talking and laughing. Dad is the 7th out of 9 children. Zell is #9. Sidebar: My mom is child #14 in her family. I come from 2 big Southern farming families!
Tomorrow the doctor is going to shock dad's heart back into rhythm (hopefully). After all that we have been through, it is hard not to be anxious. Words can't describe what it is like sitting in a hospital waiting room and hearing the Code Blue call to your loved one's room. I never want to experience that again.
"You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed upon you, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3
Beautiful photo. Prayers and best of everything for your Dad for tomorrow.
