T minus 12 hours and counting....

Patience is the companion of wisdom.
Saint Augustine

Well, I have finally arrived. No worry, no concern, this is totally out of my hands. The only thing I want to be now is loving caretaker. Today, he is wishing he didn't have to have the surgery so, I asked him if he was willing to live with the consequences, which are worsening pain and shoulder immobility. He said he knew but that didn't console him much so I said, "Tomorrow, you will be one day closer to not having any more pain."

He said, "I don't want to stay more than one day."

I said, "If the doctor says you can go, we'll come home."

I don't have to be the bad guy, just a loving wife. Funny how the Holy Spirit took over today and gave me such calm. Prayer works!!!!!!!!!
