  • 11/22/2010 Transplant plus 4 yrs plus 77 days!
    We are home from what is Bonnie's third trip to Boston docz since Aug 31 (Transplant anniversary). This week we are celebrating our 22 anniversary. Both of us are busy on the book and with grandparenting. Bonnie's left eye continues to heal the "defects" that probably resulted in an attack of graft-vs-host disease this summer. Her Boston surgeon put a piece a placenta on the cornea and stitched it shut the first week of Sept and again in October. Most of the October stitches have come off, but Bonnie is keeping it well gooped and taped shut in an effort to give it a couple of other weeks of rest to secure the healing. Daniel is the sick one these days with terrible hip pain and now a very bad case of the crud. And still we are happy and doing well. We had a wonderful time with the kiddos at Halloween. Bonnie made Halloween coloring books from their own past Halloween pictures (at Crayola.com). They all came to hear Bonnie preach on the 21st; they are getting more and more accustomed to being in church and liking it more. We will be celebrating Thanksgiving at Jen's house with them and the other four grandparents. We loved seeing grandson Jackson and his mom, Dr. Deb in Boston. Jackson is quite the kindergartener and athlete these days. He's quite into playing chess. The book writing is squeezed in between doc and kiddo visits and church activities. We enjoy beautiful sunsets over the ocean every night.

Life's a Beach

We drove from Boston to Wilmington, NC on Friday (16th), though we didn't quite make it in time for Jennifer's birthday dinner.  We made up for that by stayGrandb1_0512ing all weekend and only arrived here at the beach late Monday night.  I'm feeling Lucas_0512energetic.  I've had some wonderfully healing experiences, for example, Zac running to jump on me and my holding Lucas to my chest for a four hour nap (mostly but not exclusively his).

This moShining_sea_0512rning we woke up to a shining sea.  I'm looking forward to some fine times Oakisl_porch_0512doing nothing but rocking, talking, praying, and enjoying God's ocean.

I've started readings Ignatius.  I'm humming with the observation with which George Gans opens his summary of Ignatian sprituality: "...he saw all things both as created by God and as the means by which men and women could make their way back to God."
