Life is so precious. Stephen's freak accident still haunts us. The recovery is going slow, and we still are processing the event itself as well as our future together. The month of October will be devoted to aggressive hand therapy. The doctor says the movement we get in the next 3-4 weeks will likely be all that we can expect. That being the case, we are dropped other commitments to focus on his FULL recovery.
Just when I start feeling sorry for us, I bump into someone with no arms. Instantly, our challenges look small. Stephen is quick to add that surviving the accident was the best gift of all. Whatever lies ahead we promise to handle well. Learning to live with chronic pain shows Stephen's commitment to live life fully.
Today is a sunny, warm day in Destin. I leave shortly for a consulting assignment in another city. Every minute I have with Stephen is a gift. Spending time with loved ones brings priceless joy in all of our lives. Enjoy the day with someone special!
