To Sleep Perchance....um to sleep....

We're embarking on a well traveled road at 4 a.m....it leads to the hospital. Amy has been experiencing pain again which we've been hoping to treat via medication. However in recent weeks the pain has surged in intensity and the doctors involved in her case now want her at the hospital. When I say "now" I mean...um...now.


Amy is of course "furbling" (a family word for finding all sorts of unrelated things to do when we should be in the car driving) and assuming she's going to get admitted to the hospital, so she's preparing music for Sunday's worship service as I consider whether coffee beans can be chewed.

I realize this probably makes little sense but in a nutshell I think I'm asking folks to pray. A simple prayer will do,

"Please God be with Amy...ease her pain."

I have to go now....and unplug her computer...which is a known cure...not for her pain, but for her furbling.

Hospital naugahide...here I come...I know you well.

Ahh, Michael. Furbling. It is now a part of this family's vocabulary too. My wife is a furbler too, and it can be a serious affliction at times. Thanx for the addition to our vocabulary.

And - I sighed when I saw of Amy's problem reemerging. Of course we shall add both of you to our morning prayers.

Prayers to you this morning.
(I do so like the word furbling. So descriptive.)

Oh, geez -- not again! Poor Amy -- poor you (those are meant to be sympathy phrases, Michael, not pity ones -- I just feel so bad that you both have to go through this ordeal again) Strongest possible comfort-ing thoughts heading your way from here!

Amy is on a list that I carry in my head, although I admit she may have slipped off as of late due to what seemed to be success in this area. In my prayers, ole buddy.....

I'm praying for Amy, for her pain to be eased and this trip to the hospital to be a brief one.

I'm praying for you, for both of you.
