Merry Christmas, everyone!
We will officially have our Christmas on Saturday, as I worked Christmas Eve, and I want to be totally awake and rested to enjoy everything. (Besides, I haven't wrapped a darn thing.)
We HAVE received two early, unwrapped gifts, however.
Gift #1: DD made it in okay. Because of the office being closed for the weather and the holiday schedule, she didn't have to use 3 vacation days to come down as she thought, so is now planning to stay until Sat. 1/2, instead of leaving Tues. 12/30!
(Of course, it may take that long to work out the insurance stuff, as I scraped her car with ours while backing out of the garage tonight. But who's sweating the small stuff?)
Gift #2: J-Man had a complete metabolic panel of bloodwork drawn last week--the first in almost 2 months. All his lab values are normal. Not just borderline, but solidly, right-smack-dab-in-the-middle of normal. We may never know what caused the liver failure, but that's okay. It's gone and he's fine.
We're all together for Christmas. Everything else is secondary.
I hope all of you have a blessed Christmas, too.

So glad to hear the good health report! I have been reading, and praying for you. We had a Christmas Eve service at church last night, and visited a friend in the hospital afterward. Walking away from the hospital holding my Larry’s hand made me be thankful for a lot. Merry Christmas to all!
Merry Christmas Stephanie, and to your family. My husband pointed out that we know someone else who had a complete-liver-failure situation, death-defying surgery, eventually recovered, and they never found out what happened to him, either. I hope you have a wonderful new year, enjoy your time with family, and put this stuff behind you!!
Love,
Karen
I'm so happy to hear that the J-Man's health is back to normal. Yipeee!
Mele Kalikimaka to you and your family, Stephanie! I hope the big guy brought you everything on your wish list. I know that you've been especially nice this year! hehehe
