Waiting 💗

Still waiting for test results. I was mistaken: last week I had 7 medical engagements in 4 days. This week I have 5. Normally, I have 3. But this week we also received a special visit from L, the faithful sister in Christ who stayed with me in Oregon when my brain bled. She somehow busted up into the ICU although they wouldn’t let anyone back to see me, including my Oregonian mother with whom I had a verbal agreement that she’d come to me in the hospital if anything ever happened. After the ER called Mommy Daddy, they realized I had never given them emergency contact info. So as they waited on their flight to PDX they called E, L’s husband, who called L in Portland. E still lived in the DC area, so he showed up at Mommy Daddy’s house with a sleeping bag like, what can I do for you? Meanwhile, L took wonderful care of me. My eyes were closed (right after surgery) but when I heard her voice, I cried. She brought Mommy these roses. And I’m so grateful for friends who wait with me. We will be loyal to E & L forever. #avmsurvivor #strokesurvivor #lifeismysport #learninghowtolive #shreddedgrace
