A Beautiful Saturday

God is so good!

Just had to say that.

Clay is home, and doing well. He scared me many times with the amount of pain he has been in for the past few days - especially when he was in the hospital. But praise God, he is getting stronger and feeling a little less pain. It is the worst when he's laying down or getting up or down. Of course there is no bending or lifting. He's actually feeling a little restless - already! I reminded him that the doctor said the biggest chance of the disk re-rupturing is in the first week. In order to operate on a ruptured disc, the doctor has to enter/"nick" a sac that covers the disc and said that there is no way to sew it back up. He said it would be like sewing a wet paper towel, and it just has to heal in a few weeks.

Today is a cool, windy, sunny, beautiful day - after having days of lots of rain and lightening and thunderstorms. All of the windows are open, and there is a breeze blowing the curtains all around. It feels wonderful.

Thanks to everyone who has been praying for Clay's recovery. Prayers are being answered!
