This post is a little overdue, but I arrived safely in Albuquerque a week ago. The flights were not too difficult, I always had an empty seat next to me which allowed me to move around and get comfortable. I used a wheelchair in the 2 larger airports, that was such a blessing. I was very tired when I got to Albuquerque, the jet lag recovery was not too difficult.
It was so good to give each of my daughters a hug, and to just visit with them over this last week.
God clearly is directing my steps...I was able to start the process of doctors appointments etc last Friday. I really like the resident who is directing my care...he is very compassionate, listens to what I am telling him, and I have confidence in the care he is providing. I am on 3 different antibiotics, and also have been given pain medicine that is helping. The downside is that I find it difficult to concentrate while on the pain medicine, and now the antibiotics are causing some stomach upset as well. I still have some testing ahead of me.
My care team and home Bible study family are taking very good care of me...driving me to appointments, to pick up medicine, or a quick run to the store. Jane...well for those you who do not know her...she is amazing and has the 'gift of hospitality" down to an art form. I am truly blessed by my "family" in Albuquerque. So many friends have offered help and I am very thankful. I am resting, a lot. I am ready to start feeling better.
I thank each of you for your prayers and support. The phone calls are such a blessing and it has been very special to re-connect with my friends and family here. I am greatly missing my "family" in Kosova as well. I was reminded this morning that this is a season, and God has a purpose for me in this.
He has a hold of my hand, and He is ever present with me. I feel His presence with me during this time in my life.
blessings...
