Pete has finally fallen asleep. This is so awesome and the most important thing that he needs at this time. So thankful for that blessing. Just imagine, awake for a week after what he went through!!!
I tip toed out of the room and headed to the apartment, so Rob & I could have our supper and simply relax.
Physically Pete is healing quite well.
It felt like we were riding a roller coaster this past week, not really knowing what to expect around the next corner. We pray that this new week will be one of restful healing.
Was good to tune into the Chilliwack church service this morning.
My sister Ena Bontkes from BC will be here from Tuesday noon till Thursday evening. Quite excited about that :)

Spent some time this evening reading in Pete's room, while listening to the soft rhythmic breathing of my husband still sleeping peacefully. Found myself smiling as I was walking to the apartment :) Thankful for the little things we so often take for granted.
Goodnight to all!
Have a good sleep uncle peter. Get well soon. Praying for you all the time.
ReplyDeleteI always feel like I'm on a roller coaster ride all through the week. I also check the blog lots. Thanks for the updates aunty Margaret.
