Pain medication makes all the difference! Finally John sleeps . . . and sleeps and sleeps and sleeps! He has not slept for the past two days, but today he is catching up, and it is wonderful! He needs the rest so badly.
He said to me he feels badly that he’s sleeping while I’m here. I told him not to worry about it one little bit. My nerves could use the break, too, from all the squirming he’s been doing the past few days.
John’s doctors told us this morning that they are getting some activity for hearts that are available; however, they need one that is strong, healthy, and perfect for John so that it can give him life for a lot of years to come. We told them that we want to wait as long as we have to for that perfect heart. When I ask God to save John’s life I ask Him for 50 more years. That will make him 86. I figure 86 is a good, long life.
So we’ll just patiently wait. And hopefully continue to get some good sleep in the meantime.
