Make it through Wednesday and it is all down hill to the weekend for those who work a Monday thru Friday schedule. For the Tin Man, two more days will make it two weeks since he received his new heart. It's hard to believe. I think the hardest thing for me has been not getting here in time to see Ken before he went into surgery. It wouldn't change what happened, I just could have seen that excitement in his eyes that I heard in his voice. There has only been a few times those eyes have been open since I arrived here, and it was not excitement I saw.
Not much has changed - the dialysis is hooked up and running, and the ventilator is assisting his breathing. They continue to run blood test and make adjustments as needed and I continue to thank God for His faithfulness and trust in His timing. Perhaps Ken will take a big swing towards recovery tomorrow - I would love to see some life in those brown eyes - and I guarantee everyone would see excitement in these green eyes of mine.

Bert - good things come to those who wait - it is much easier said than felt but as you said - it's in GOD's time - the heart is working, now everything else has to match it's progress - and they will - keep the faith - your witness has been so strong - miss and love you much! We pray for you daily - Amy (call center and records at CFCU)
