Well we have been home since Wed. night and things are a little crazy. I am a week behind at work and with our regular Christmas activities. Sorry to say that no one will be getting Christmas cards from the Lees this year. We just don't have enough time to get them done.
Sandra is doing a great job at playing nurse to Cindy. Cindy can walk around the house but she is a little slow and unsure on her feet. She is also needing a little help getting dressed and that kind of stuff but she is doing pretty well.
I'll share a little story from our hospital stay: From time to time we had to step out of the room while Cindy was sleeping or they were doing something for her. Sandra and I were walking around killing time when we saw a bulletin board with some notices on it. We were reading the notices when we came across a notice for some volunteers for a sleep study. The pay was $600 for two nights of study. We joked about signing up while were there, and making some extra money. The next night we had to leave the room again so we were walking around the section of the hospital where they do the sleep studies and observations for Sleep apnea. A nurse asked us if we were her patients for the night. Sandra and I just laughed (because of the previous nights discussion). The nurse asked us what we were up to so we explained that we were from out of town and our daughter was in the hospital.
She asked us if we had place to sleep!! We told her that we were staying with some friends. She then told us that if we were ever at the hospital and needed some sleep to come see her. She said if there was an empty bed in the sleep study rooms we could come in and sleep there. We had a good laugh about that. As we left and told her thanks she replied "I'll be praying for you guys and your daughter".
Well things were a little exciting around here tonight. Jenny, Mya, and Tommy arrived today and we exchanged gifts tonight with them. It was fun to see them want each others toys!
We get to go to Grandma's tomorrow and have Christmas with Sandra's side of the family. Hope everyone has a good weekend. Tom and Sandra
