Back in the summer, when things were really bad, I dreamed of Thanksgiving, and prayed that Jamie would be sitting at our Thanksgiving dinner table with us. I am so thankful that this prayer, along with many others, was answered. I am thankful for all of Jamie's friends and family who shared their love and support these last four months. I am thankful for my son-in-law Marc who took the burden of dealing with hospital bills and insurance and medicaid off our shoulders, and created order out of chaos. I am thankful for the skills and the incredible compassion of all the doctors, nurses, nurses aides and therapists at Carolinas Medical Center and Carolinas Rehabilitation. And I am thankful for our church family, whose caring support has been boundless.
Today, the day after Thanksgiving, Jamie is having therapy. He is being fitted with an orthotic to wear on his left foot/ankle. He no longer has to wear the big brace on his left leg - hooray! It will take several more weeks for his toes on his right foot to heal--this kind of wound has to heal from the inside out - the doctor says to eat lots of protein - we've got lots of turkey leftovers! :-)
I pray that your Thanksgiving blessings, dear reader, are many.
Love and Peace,
Brenda
