Update (4/4/09 - 9:30am)

Home sweet home. After more than 4 weeks in Baltimore, we arrived back home in Woodstock, GA on Tuesday night. Being able to stay with the Scheihings in Baltimore was a great blessing, but it's always nice to be home.
We took three days to make the 12hr drive back. Our first stop was Lynchburg, VA (5hr drive) where we stayed with our friends the McBratney's and spent some time with Nick at Liberty. Cindy was even able to get a massage from another Lynchburg friend - Lynn Vessels, which helped her tolerate the second leg of the trip.
Our second stop was Davidson, NC (3hr drive) where we stayed with my parents. An unexpected turn of events ended with my Dad in the hospital after a reaction to medication following an outpatient procedure. It was the Lord's plan that I was able to be with Mom in the hospital. Dad had to stay overnight for observation, but went home the next day and is doing fine now.
The third leg was the 4 hour drive home. Cindy had the hardest time with this leg after riding in the car the two previous days. She is still trying to regain her energy.
Now with Cindy home, I can concentrate more on the job hunt. Cindy will be undergoing physical therapy to help regain her strength. Other than her strength, she is doing very well.

  3. Wow, Cindy! You are home! Isn't that a wonderful feeling? I know the journey you've been on has been long and hard. Now that you are home again I pray you will heal faster and regain your strength daily. I'm sure Bob and Sherry will miss you two but I'm thinking that Jenna is overjoyed to have her parents back home. Our love to you all. 'Friends are friends forever when the Lord's the Lord of them.' Love, Johnna
