Holding My Breath

I know so many of you care about Jay and follow the blog to see how he's doing. Of course, I want to report and write about great progress and good news. I didn't report last night because he's better, but still suffering from an intestinal bacteria (c-diff). I was so frustrated and miserable, I could not bear to write. You can only imagine how he felt! The medication should be kicking in and taking more effect today, and I hope to the heavens he can get off the bedpan and back to the gym. He was completely wiped out from this bacteria yesterday.

I'm holding my breath until I get to the hospital this morning............................this "bug" has got to end.

  2. I am thinking of you and Jay everyday. And though Jay is not here at Western State, his vision and spirit is guiding me along the way without our wonderful leader Jay. I hope that Jay recovers quickly from this "bug" and he can get back on the road to being healthy. Much love your way, Luke Mehall

  3. Hi Dawn,
    Our prayers are with you more than ever. I am familiar with c-diff so know how uncomfortable it can be. May you have a good sleep tonight and God's peace attend to you. Doug and Candy Sparks

  5. Dear Friends,
    My prayer today will be that you can seize on and treasure whatever comfort can be derived from knowing that so many of us whose lives you have touched for the better are walking with you as best we can...and are never very hard to find.
