Here, There And Everywhere

We're Taking The Patient Approach

Many of you are probably wondering a) why I haven't been visiting your blogs every day and b) why I haven't been leaving comments on your posts and c) why I haven't been replying promptly (as I normally do) to the wonderful comments you leave here. Well, I haven't forgotten you - I would never do that. Nor have I turned my back on you - I wouldn't do that either. A family member has been in hospital after major surgery on Friday, so I've been a bit busier than normal. All is well, however, and the doctors are happy with progress being made, despite a few unforeseen hiccups. So don't worry. I'm here. You just can't see me!

You always are there, David. I'm sorry to hear of "unforseen hiccups", and hope there will be no more of those. My sister hosts a healing circle, and I have asked her to include your family member in their prayers. I am sure we are all thinking of you and yours, and wishing a full return to strength and good health. x

Hi RK,

Thank you for your good wishes. Isn't that strange - you come to check up on me and you realise there is a problem after reading the post.

You must have ESP. Thanks once again.

Cheers

David,

I hope all is going well for your family member.

My initial reaction is to hope the unforeseen hiccups were not a side effect from treating actual hiccups.

But seriously, it sounds like things are going better, so that's definitely good.

Thank you for the update, David. I'm glad things are going well, and hopefully will continue to do so.

Take care,
Stacy

A speedy recovery to your family member. I hope the rest of the family adjusts well to whatever changes need to be made as the healing begins.

I'll be lifting you up in prayer as well.

Many thanks to you and your wife. All is well now, and the recovery process will be slow but steady.

Thank you for that warm support.

By the way, I'm so glad that you've returned (albeit sporadically) to that refreshing blog of yours.

Hi FHB,

Many thanks for the sage advice. My primary rule in life is that family comes first.

Thank you for reinforcing it.
