Dorothy, of Wizard of Oz fame, said it best. "There's no place like home." After what we thought was going to be an overnight stay in the hospital turned out to be more like 4 days, it really is good to be home. I am getting stronger and feeling better. Mouth and throat sores still prevent me from eating very much, and chemo reactions still take much of my energy away, but I am confident that things will get better with time. As I look outside my glass doors I can see some sleet or freezing rain coming down. I realize that there are many tasks that folks need to accomplish before they can stop and go home. My prayer is that everyone will be careful in their travels. Over the next day or so it may be necessary for some folks to stay indoors for awhile. The weather may prevent you from getting out. Let me suggest that when that happens, spend that time in communion with our Lord. After all, it's all about Him.
