As anyone who has travelled with John would know, the Minister's Cat is his favourite game for car trips. And, if you have ever played this game with him, you will know that his superior vocabulary makes him an expert. To play, one person starts by using a descriptive word to describe the 'minister's cat' beginning with a-z. This blog is dedicated to John, in order to update friends and family about his journey and provide areas of prayer.

One tired puppy
Today was a day of getting back into the routine of things at GF Strong. John got up in his wheelchair for the first time in 6 days. We saw the OT and she discussed the kind of bed he would need and what there was. Lunch in the day room was met with lots of good wishes from all the patients who had missed John. After lunch he was measured for his own power chair as well as adjustments were made to the chair he is in now. All this was pretty exhausting for John so immediately after supper he went to bed. Now that it is the weekend there won't be any therapy except what he chooses to do and he can adjust to being up in the wheelchair all day.

Dear Tired:
ReplyDeleteYou deserve a weekend of just resting. Renewing our hearts, minds and bodies for the weeks ahead. Resting in HIM.
Hugs to you.
Good news all the way around John; being back in GF Strong is a biggie!!! We are so happy to hear you are feeling better and we continue to keep you in our daily prayers.
ReplyDeleteRest up this weekend and get ready for the week ahead. Our Lord is certainly watching over you.
LOL to you and Laverne..
The good thing is; you are going back and forth between 2 places now that you know
ReplyDeleteThe bad thing is that it tires you out a lot
The good thing is that this is the weekend and I will end with a good thing. Two out of three ain't bad.
"And on the seventh day He rested from all his work" Gen.2:2
So there you are, have a well deserved rest and know that when you are well rested you will probably do much better with all that you have to do, than not taking that time.
The fruit of the spirit is love, joy and peace. - Galatians 5:22
ReplyDeleteWishing you a peaceful and wonderful weekend, with love

I am glad your going to rest this weekend, just to let you know if it was not for your blog I would be sitting at this darn computer learning more ESL. Just reading about you has made me pause and take some time for me. It's still hard for me to understand that God does not put more on your plate than you can handle. Have a restfykk day my frined. Hugs from Dorie :O)
