Home


We're home. Jordan was very excited. All he had done at the hospital was sit in the wagon and stand briefly holding onto the chair, but when he got home he was determined to get back to his crazy self and wanted to climb and get into things. He was frustrated when he realized how difficult it was since he is so weak. Everyone was very joyous and it was extremely chaotic as a whole carload of stuff was unloaded and dumped downstairs. Next came the 8 boxes of medical supplies and when I realized Jordan wanted to move around and Brent couldn't lift him very well, I was completely overwhelmed. Just getting all his medical supplies set up took me a couple hours. We are extremely glad to be home and hoping things will get easier as we get in the swing of things and Brent gets back to himself. This Christmas we are so thankful for our family and friends. I don't know what we'd do without you. No words can express how much your love and selfless care for us has meant. We are forever grateful.

Ditto to what Andria says...I too am overjoyed to see that sweet picture of precious Jordan. Becky, we are holding you especially close in prayer as I can only imagine the weight of responsibility you must feel. One moment at a time. You can do it. We're praying for healing for Brent as well. May your Christmas be so special. This Christmas eve was unique for us as there was a head-shaving party at our house...first my Mom (since she's shedding more than her dog at this point -- post chemo)...next my Dad...quickly followed by my brother, Scott and my 90 year old Gramps. They're joining the "bald is beautiful" crew.

We love you guys. Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Busbys! I'm so glad you aren't spending it on the 3rd floor. I love the photo -- the big smile, the Elmo chair (at least, that's what I think it is!), and, best of all, no yellow jammies!
love,
Liz
