Brief respite

Your omniscient author in absentia:
OK, that was a short return to normalcy. Got some bad news yesterday after the TEE (transesophageal echocardiogram). The bacteria have done more damage to my wife's heart than they'd thought, already seeing heart issues related to it. The docs are convening specialists etc to discuss next steps, probably surgery, valve replacement etc.

Continuing to pray for you and your family, brother. My father is a heart patient and the first days of dealing with it are the hardest. One way or another, it gets better - this is one area of medical science where the doctors really know what they are doing.

Here's one Yankee fan rooting for a happy and healthy resolution for the Soxaholix bride. Get well and stay well.

Little League cranked up in full swing last week and this is the 1st time I've checked in since you posted this. (Normally it's every day)
Sorry to hear about Ms. HB's condition.
As the husband of a cancer patient myself, I know this is as hard on you as it is her, maybe harder emotionally. I know the seemingly NEVER-ending hours at the doctor's office and hospital take a huge toll. There are times when it seems you go for days without doing anything but sit in uncomfortable chairs and wait for results and dr's consultations. It's just plain exhausting to be ill and to be the care-giver as well.
Stay positive, get your rest.
This strip and all of us will be here when you have time.
Having said that, I also know that getting back to my routine with my little-leaguers has been one of the few things that helps me retain some sense of normalcy. So get your rest, THEN write.
