Saturday

I’ve promised myself to be brief tonight. Bonnie had a good day today after a very long night. Bonnie spent most of the day with her mom with the pinnacle being the live feed of Cassandra’s commencement exercise they enjoyed from the privacy of a private conference room. Cassandra was one of three who had a commencement speech and she was a rock. I on the other hand was not and am emotionally spent. Now all we have to do is get through Cassandra’s open house next week. We are in good hands as it relates to the planning and execution of the event. Our small group that Bonnie and I have been involved with for the past 18 years is taking it on. Just another example of the outpouring of love we have been experiencing.

Bonnie the last two nights has spiked a fever and her hemoglobin is somewhat lower than it has over the past several days. Other than that, we are in a wait and see right now and take one day at a time. We’re hoping to get a good night’s sleep.

Because we find ourselves on the not so familiar side of receiving as opposed to giving, we continue to be amazed and at a loss for words, except thank you. Thank you for the prayers, meals, offers to help, and so on and so forth.

Tomorrow I'll turn the mouse and keyboard over to Bonnie (if she is up to it) as there are some things on her heart she would like to share.

Continue to enjoy your extended weekend.
