So, here I am in Elmira once again. It's as beautiful day (21 degress for all you chilly northern folk!) and I'm having a really nice visit. My dad was well enough to be discharged Monday morning, so we were able to bring my dad home on the way back from the airport. It worked out really well because we got to visit with Joel too. He was really happy to see Caleb and got lots of hugs from him...what good medicine! He was really determined to come home today (Tuesday), but will have to stay until tomorrow. He's pretty discouraged but is accepting that they just want to take care of him. What a great kid!
It's been neat to see the rally of support my family has had over the last week or so; food, gifts, flowers, cards, phone calls, prayers...it's incredible! What fortune they have to be surrounded by family and friends.
