Thankful Thursday


Today I am especially thankful for one very important piece of news. My dad's home from hospital ten days earlier than they expected and his white blood cell count is already nearly back to normal. Thank you, Lord. He lost most of his hair which he is a bit self-conscious of, but that is such a minor worry. His specialist had him on three visits a week, but has cut that down to only one a week as he is improving so quickly.



My prayers are with anyone who is suffering from ill health or supporting a family member or friend who is ill. And I am very thankful for the good health that I and my family enjoy. We forget just what a blessing it is to be healthy and to have happy, healthy children.

  2. I'm so glad to here that he is making such a good recovery. You must be so very relieved. There is nothing harder than seeing a loved one unwell. All the best :)

    1. Thank you so much. All is still looking well, although I know he will never really be completely well.

  3. Gosh it sounds like he was very sick but is making a good recovery, thank fully. My dad has just been diagnosed with emphysema. It doesn't matter how old you get a daughter always needs her dad.
