Hospitals…hmm…alot comes to mind when I think of hospitals…
My first thought is when Des hit her chin on the headboard to her bed, and ended up needed glued back together…For anyone that doesn’t know, that’s what liquid stitches are…glue…*LOL* Oh, that was so much fun…3 kids, my sister and I, at the ER…Des dripping blood…Really though I think the after math was worse, trying to get her to be careful not to bump it, or pick at it, trying to keep the food and liquids away from it…The joys of parenthood!! *LOL*
Than I think of my Dad…He has/had palps on his sinuses, and it cause major bloody noses…I went to the bowling alley one night with my sister and then husband, but than I had to go back home and get ready for work…I walk in the door, Dad is laying on a couch we had at that time, and there are MASSIVE puddles of blood all over the livingroom floor….Dad is passed out on the couch…I wake him, sort of, and imediately take him to the ER (We didn’t know what the problem was then)…He was in the hospital for two or three days…
And finally…I think of my Mother. I was a month short of 16, when she passed away.

Hey there-
Sorry for your sad memories. Do you keep a journal? Jill Novak (homeschoolblogger.com/jillnovak) was here for the past 2 days with her lovely children (You know Ericnovak.com..) Anyway, they publish The Girlhood, and she has a wonderful book she has written, The Gift of Family Writing. If you are interested in it, lmk, ok?
and fyi….
You are a real encouragement to me and my girls. Thank you.
Love, J

I don’t have very pleasant memories of the hospital either.
My Mom was almost paralyzed in the hospital with a supposed non evasive operation. My grandma in the hospital with cancer.
Isn’t it funny? The place that can help us the most is often associated with pain. Sometimes even though we know God is taking care of us, we start to associate him with pain, blame him for our pain. He is really the only one who can help us with our pain.
