We have had some nice days since the last blog though ,as one of my good friends came to stay with us last weekend, which helped to fill our days and gave us the opportunity to revisit some favourite spots along the coast. She also helped us finish the 1000 piece puzzle we started the other week (see below). It was also great for me to have some one to 'girl chat' with and clothes shop with !!! Just as well there are not too many clothes shops on Coogee Bay road.
However, days at the clinic have been rather long as we are now waiting on liver enzyme tests each day we go in, as these are not right. They are not seriously high, but we are praying for them to go back to normal. Adam has also got a persistent cough that has been causing us all a bit of grief. He is not feeling unwell, but the cough is not going away. This has resulted in an over night stay in emergency, and some other investigative tests, some of which we are yet to have. These are the things keeping us here.
Adam in clinic isolation room being a bit silly !
On the home front Darren is doing a fantastic job keeping Matthew and Alexander organised and they seem to be managing ok, but are also counting down the days to our return (although we are not sure when that will actually be!)
So please keep praying for some resolving of these issues as they are beginning to worry me!
Love Marian and Adam and the home crew
Hi Marian and Adam,
ReplyDeleteHow are you doing? You must be doing it so tough over there without the rest of your family. We are all thinking of you and praying and hoping that your recovery continues to be positive and maybe a bit more speedy :) Adam, you really are amazing, I am having a hard time with my Crohns at the moment and every time i even think to get down about it i just think of you and what you are going through and tell myself to get over it. You are my inspiration to be strong. marian, wow, I dont know how you do it, you are just Mother of the Year material. I even went to nominate you on the site for it, but it is a very complicated process. so I'll just award you for it now.:) Matthew- what a year for you, starting high school and helping your dad and baby bro around the house, you too are a champion, it must be so hard for you too, being so far away from your mum and brother, i want you to know that i think of you all the time too and you are turning out to be such a fine, young gentleman. i am so proud of you. Ok, before i get too soppy, i have tears in my eyes, i love you all and keep fighting Adam, be strong and i am looking forward to giving you a giant cuddle when you get home. love Kylie, todd and kids
Also, good work on the puzzle, looks awesome, you should get it framed.
