Aspira tube is in...........yeah

Yesterday we had a new drainage tube installed at Queens. It was fast and fabulous. We need to watch the DVD so we can do this ourselves and the procedure is pretty straight forward. Rich is pretty sleepy and sore in his abdomen but when he is alert, it's amazing. He is very cognizant. 

Sunday night we did a special Thanksgiving dinner with our kiddo's and Suzanne. It was wonderful. We all felt so cheated by not having Rich here at Thanksgiving so this meal was extra special. Suz bought all 'organic' foods so we ate well. Rich's appetite is improving so he ate turkey, mashed potatoes, dinner rolls (my oatmeal ones). Suz made some good gravy and that was so delicious. 

We need to move with mini rehab at home. I got the yellow band out and will start with simple stretching. We are doing nice drives on the weekends. Didn't see any whales yet but will keep looking!

Sunday we went to a very special church service. We got to hear Marilyn Hickey speak and minister. It was so encouraging. This woman is 81 yet looks 45. She ministers 'health' in the Lord. We prayed as a group. Charmaine was with us so Rich was flanked in prayer. Cool. For you old timers, Marilyn Hickey has an international healing ministry for over 40 yrs. She ministers mostly in Muslim countries....they don't perceive her as a threat. She has lead many Muslims to Christ. Good to be an older woman. Her message was simple. God loves to use your weaknesses. Yep, that's us.
