I'm happy to be home!!!!
It was a long two weeks in Alaska especially because Brian was re-admitted to the hospital the day I arrived in Anchorage. Three more surgeries later, the poor kid is still there. He is most likely looking at least 2-3 weeks longer in the hospital, possibly more than that, and when he is able to go home, his recovery will be a long, slow process. Brian needs lots of prayers.
I did enjoy the time with the grandkids though. The three year old requires lots of energy just to keep an eye on her, and Evan, age 7, is the polar opposite of his sister. He is quiet and calm and loves to play cards....so him and I had a few card game marathons.
Back in Dallas, Henry got caught in the crazy drivers of Dallas and was rear ended a week and a half ago. Our car was a total loss and undriveable, so we are back at square one with the hunt for another car. ---You know the commercial for Nationwide Insurance and their little tune? 'Nationwide is on your side'. -- The lady that plowed into Henry has Nationwide, and I must say they were prompt in the claim process all the way through to settling. They have already paid us and were more than fair.
Wow....it is SOOO NICE to enjoy my coffee without interruptions such as:
'Grandma, I want apple juice'
'Grandma, I want cereal'
'Grandma, can I play PS2?'

Wow -- sorry to hear about Henry's accident. That didn't take long; hopefully that means it's out of the way and there won't be any more.
I'm so sorry to hear about Brian. It sounded a few weeks ago like he was doing pretty well. I'm sure he, along with the rest of the family, are very disappointed that he's not quite as far along in recovery as originally thought. I'll certainly include him in prayers.
Glad to know you made it back to Dallas and "your man Henry." I'm sure he was VERY glad to see you get off that plane!

Thank you, Renee.
Brian was told last night he will be in the hospital for at least another month. Today is day 32.
He has had another setback today and the doctors are 'perplexed'. All prayers are much appreciated.
Yes, Henry is looking at cars again. He's thinking perhaps something a bit larger in size. Could it be he is wary of another person plowing into the back end?
