Sat. Nov 15, 2008 - Hello my LOV family!

Sat. Nov. 15 08

Hello my loving LOV (Life on the Vine church) family!

I did make it home from the hospital today, exactly 4 weeks after the accident. I give God thanks and praise for ALL of his providence and sustenance through a very trying time with lots of difficulties and challenges. Just to be alive and able to think and talk and love is SUCH a privilege that I thank God for.

It's going to be a very long road ahead; something like a year of rehab. I'll probably have the "jungle gym" fixator around my foot drilled into the bones for 5-6 more weeks.

I so appreciate and long for your prayers. Even today, within the first 20 minutes of being home, I slipped with my crutch on some wet kitchen tile and sort of half-fell onto my hurt foot. It scared me a lot, and It does feel funny now, but we're praying that nothing is more damaged inside. I need to remember that the fixator is drilled into the bones like concrete. Anyway, another reminder of my fragility and need for the Lord's hand of protection.

This is my first time touching the internet in a month. I'm so thankful to be here and thankful for all of y'all. Looking forward to the day we meet again. Peace of Christ to you - Todd
