All In A Day

I missed my blog yesterday, it was a busy day for me. I was up at 5am to go 
and help with a catering job with my old boss who is now a dear friend. 
We fed about 85 people a full Christmas lunch; turkey, ham, potatoes, 
veggies, two salads, all the fixin's as well as desert. The meal turned 
out wonderful, nobody left hungry and there were tons of compliments 
from those we fed. 


 After the job was all said and done I visited for a bit, then went to an 
info session at my university; they were offering information on the 
Masters program and I'm definitely interested. Why not? I've come this 
far, I might as well take this education to the next level if all goes well.

After the info session I went to the hospital to visit with Austin. 
Here's the latest update on Awesome Austin which was posted by my 
niece on the Prayers for Austin site on facebook ...

"So when I came back from RMH I found quite a different little boy. He had a nap and then went to physio while I was gone and did some bike riding!! He also went to play at the Beach. Doctors have started weaning his Milrinone. They monitored his vitals every 15 mins at first and then every hour but he appears to be stable . He had a fever for awhile but temp is back to normal now. There is talk that Austin is supposed to start school in the hospital on Monday already! I thank God for the progress and pray that it continues! I am believing for full and complete recovery and health!"

This is Austin finally getting a bit of sleep last night, his sleeps have
been restless and he wakes up often...


It was a busy day for me as I mentioned, but it was a productive day. 
To watch Austin sleep and to visit with my niece and her husband was 
the perfect way to end my busy day. Thank you to those of you who
 continue to pray and/or send positive thoughts to our little Iron Man, 
he truly is a remarkable young man.

  1. Oh what a most dear sweet little boy. He will be such the strong young man one day for all this that he has gone through at such an early age! I pray he'll be up and at it and enjoy the life he truly deserves! Hugs and kisses for Austin!

    1. Thank you Karen, he sure is going through a lot and I only wish I could do more, but at least I can offer my love, pray for him and take him whatever he wants when I can, that's an Auntie's job in my opinion.

      Have a wonderful weekend!

  2. I feel for Austin trying to sleep under those conditions. I know kids sleep like logs but for a little kid who doesn't feel well to have all the stuff hooked up, lights on and people coming in all the time it must be difficult to sleep.
    I am treated at some of the places I volunteer with a super catered dinner.

    1. Red it is difficult for Austin to sleep, last night when I went in to visit my niece Austin was nodding off and I was elated that he fell asleep about 15 minutes after I had arrived. He slept the rest of my visit and I hope he managed to get in a few solid hours of rest, heaven only knows how badly his little body needs rest.

      That's fantastic you get a catered dinner, I hope you enjoy it!
