Heading Home

Unless some unexpected problem shows up in Anne’s final blood tests tomorrow, we expect to be home mid-day, which will be Friday up in Bellingham.

Our final day has been very pleasant, Anne continues to feel better, eat more and is required to do less measuring, monitoring, and mitering each day. After two weeks of shopping at the Pike Place Market, cooking in our apartment and living very simply, heart-to-heart, it is with some nostalgia that we get ready to leave this place.

The picture is of Anne during our final walk in the Madison neighborhood. As we meandered back to our hotel, we walked through the court yard of a stunning Cathedral which we have included in many of our walks. We noticed a small side door open, so we stepped inside for a peak. As we did, a woman walked up and asked us if we would like to join the choir in an open practice. We did and it was wonderful – the acoustics, the voices, the setting were all very moving. A couple of gifts from God for Anne in this impromptu event; She loves choral music, and during her time in post-op one of her closest friends prayed Psa 23 over her – the final song we sang tonight was Psa 23.

Thank you Father for meeting jus in so many ways, through those who came, those who called those who prayed and through your one-on-one times with us. You are, we worship you.
