HOME AGAIN
Hello to all,
Sorry for not posting anything but birthday greetings these past few weeks. Things are quite busy around the Boersma household. Also, for those of you who have not heard, Dad was admitted into the hospital in the ICU with pneumonia on the 7th of May and after 10 days of IV antibiotics finally was able to come home yesterday, May the 16th. I was not around when he went into the hospital, but am told that he was quite weak and pale. He looks much better now.
So, we are home now. He and Mom are again getting back into the routine. Please pray that he will be able to rest well at night. I will be here until this coming Tuesday when I head back to Jackson before I fly out to Indiana for Mary Julia's high school graduation. David and Rachel continue to be a huge help and support for Mom and Dad, for which all of us other siblings are eternally grateful. I do plan on visiting Ruston often this summer, due to the fact that I am out of school until August.
Many thanks for all the prayers for all of us during this time and for the countless number of people who have been bringing meals and who stop by to pray, rub Dad's feet and legs, read, or just to visit. How beautiful is the body of Christ!
We love you all!
Joanna and the rest of the family
P.S. Dad is enjoying getting used to his new computer that speaks and writes for him just by eye contact. It is amazing how far technology has advanced even in my lifetime. He is looking forward to posting on this blog himself.
