It is Sunday morning, and a good opportunity to direct prayer and praise to God for the good things He is doing, including His loving care for Kathy-Lu.
She had a good day yesterday. She said that although she is recovering from surgery and feeling the effects of that, she already feels better in some ways than she did before the surgery. That is definitely a reason for rejoicing.
She continues to progress well. Her release from hospital will happen after she is able to accomplish certain tasks without problems with her heart. These include being able to do her breathing exercises, walk a certain distance, and to climb two flights of stairs. She is getting very close to reaching those goals, so it looks like it will not be very long before she returns home to continue her recovery there. If you want to dance with joy as you praise God, go right ahead. Lorne would have been last night if sleep hadn't claimed him first.
She was able to talk with Elyssa on the phone last evening. I think that was good for both of them. We are thankful for God's presence and strength as family members have faced these days with slightly higher stress. He is an awesome God.
Kathy-Lu has been encouraged as I have taken messages from friends to her. She is looking forward to reading them again after she returns home. It will most likely be a little while before she is able to achieve her heart's desire to be corresponding with many of you again. But, little by little some of those goals will probably be reached too.
Thanks for joining with us today as we express thanks to God for His expressions of mercy and grace toward Kathy-Lu and our family.
