Well, as they say, "All good things must come to an end."
I'm not going to say that we're really at the end, but today (starting last night) was a rough day for Bobbi. She's working crazy hard, with a very full schedule of things that are hard physically, don't always feel good physically, and are wrapped up with many emotional things that make it hard mentally as well. It also happens to be the day that Grandma had to go back to Wisconsin, which means that on her roughest day going into it, Bobbi also had to spend the most time alone that she's had to do all week.
Daddy got to go back down to spend the evening with her - he left about an hour ago. Hoping that puts a nice end to a long week. Tomorrow she has a half day of therapy, and then Saturday afternoon and Sunday off before starting up again on Monday.
Phew!

UPDATE:
Matt just emailed saying that Bobbi was in better spirits when he got there this evening. He found her chatting in her rolling stander at the desk of the Ronald McDonald house. My first thought is that she was there scoping for potato chips. [grin]
But the best news is that our friend, Faith, is going to be able to spend the night with Bobbi, so she doesn't have to be alone AND I don't have to be alone, here, either. So very good on so many counts.
Poor girl. Is she allowed to come home for a visit when she has a day off therapy?
ReplyDeleteComing home IS an option with our insurance, but we're not sure yet if she'd rather go through the hoo-hah of coming home for 24 hours, or if it's going to be more restful for her to just stay put without anyone bugging her. There are at least four people who have said they want to visit her over the weekend, so that may help her to pass the time. I'm hoping she and Matt had a chance to sort that out when he was down there tonight - he's on his way home soon...
ReplyDeleteYou are such wonderful parents doing such hard work for your children, and I am praying for you and for them.
