Three Dogs and Two Women

I want to take a moment to just say thank you for your prayers and help! Thanks to those who have rallied to cover my responsibilities at the house! Recooperating has been easier due to a friend graciously opening her home to me, while others watch over the the daily needs of the Discovery House ministry. Staying here with Anne-Marie's makes me feel like I'm wrapped, pampered and protected. (Cece has joined the pack with Anne-Marie's two dogs - hence the title.)

My first follow up visit with the cardiologist is tomorrow. I'm looking forward to starting my "new life style" and am hoping to get released to start back working.

This has been a good time to reflect. I've been learning that I am a "starter" not a "maintainer". As I've gotten systems, processes, etc. in place I will be calling on others to actively and regularly participate. A big realization that I've had is I am not meant to do everything. And I'm obviously not able to continue at the pace that I was at and stay healthy.

Joy's Heart Update

If you haven't heard already, Sunday morning Joy had a minor heart attack. She says she "suffered" a heart attack because of the amount of pain that she was in prior to diagnosing what happened. She spent three days in the hospital and had surgery putting two stints in her heart.

Currently she's recovering at her friend Anne Marie's house. Thanks for all of your love and support!

If you're interested in helping her, we're compiling a list of needs to cover while she's away from the Discovery House. So please let Joy know.

Blessings,
Aimee (her daughter)
