Home Again, Home Again

Iva is home! She hasn't left her bed, but she is here!

Tonight will tell if the drugs they sent her home with will do the trick. On another positive note, they only cost $65! We have fallen in love with the Professional Building Pharmacy here in Clear Lake by the Medical Center. If you ever need any medical supplies, just ask for Ernest. They have a real pharmacy where they do compounding and everything. Ernest has taken great care of us and he is just an all around outstanding human being.

Anyway, that has been one of the greatest things throughout this whole last year and a half. The people we have met that we would not have ordinarily had reason to. The people who have shared their time and resources with us, the people that pray for Iva and have not ever met her. The friends who bring us dinner despite the demands of their own lives. The friends who take our daughters for a day so we can be at the hospital with Iva. The friends who tirelessly pass the word around of Iva and her fight. Those that never tire of listening. I don't know if we will ever have a chance to show them all how much we appreciate them, but each and every one of them has lightened our load and filled our hearts.

Sometimes we struggle to have appreciation in life, to see that there is more than just endless suffering. Each and every one of you has made it that much easier for us, and for that, we will always be grateful.
