Still at the hospital and at Cyndi's Sue's bedside...

God answered our prayers regarding the "snoring and rest request" we all petitioned Him for. We don't really know if there was any snoring or not. They gave Cyndi a sleep aid at midnight, and boy did she sleep. She was still asleep at noon! In and out but mostly OUT of it.

This afternoon: They injected Cyndi, with some sort of numbing stuff, at specific "trigger points" on her face, scalp, neck and down her back. The doctor said that this will give the nerves a rest for a while (it could be for minutes, hours, days or possibly weeks). We don't have any word about when she gets to leave this wonderful place. Pray and pray that it's tomorrow! She is so ready to get out of here and get to sleep in her own bed - or any bed, other than a hospital bed, for that matter. Poor little Aidan has come to the same conclusion (yes, he's talking well enough to tell us that - actually it's the screams that we understand). No, he's been incredible. He'll be even better when those little teeth come in. He gets so excited when we walk into Cyndi's room and he sees his mommy's face - he dives for her arms and buries his face in her shoulder. They snuggle and watch 'Signing Time' for a while.

P.S. Happy Birthday Dad Haifley (yesterday) and Bobo (today). We love you.

I just want to say that I for one, am so ready for you to be home! I have been praying that the numbing medication will do what it is suppose to and that your back will heal, and no more pain. I hate that I can't be there to help take care of you and give you hugs and kissses, so here are a few from a far XOXOXOXO. I love you.
