A HAPPY BLOG!!

There is a marine I have been praying for. He served 2 tours in Iraq. He was back in the US for 8 hours (hadn't even gotten home yet), when he ran out into the street to catch a football and was hit by a car. He suffered extensive brain damage. That has been over a year ago. Last night, he wrote his name by himself without anyone helping him. That is a major milestone. He watches football, recognizes his mother, and points to things he wants. He has come so far!!

I NOW HAVE WATER!!! My yard is still torn up because it got dark the other day and he didn't have time to get the water line covered up. Then yesterday it rained all day. So maybe today he'll be out to do it. He worked so hard and did it all by himself. I felt sorry for him because he did the work on Saturday and couldn't find anyone to help him. But I guess he's done it before and I'm sure it won't be the last time. Now maybe I can clean my house again. I had just scrubbed the floors when the pipes burst. Now I'll have to do it all over again, because I haven't been able to mop since then. But that's okay. I HAVE WATER!!1

About Me

I am now an RN. I love taking pictures, especially of my grandchildren. I love taking care of people and wish there was more time to do it. Management puts so much paperwork and picky stuff on us we really don't have time to do the job we are destined to do.
