Home for good

Brad is now home from an away clinical in Missouri. He was gone all of February except every Saturday and Sunday. It was a difficult month for me while he was gone. I got the stomach flu and influenza and a urinary tract infection and a sinus infection! I had to have an IV because I got so dehydrated. I found myself asking why everything has to happen all at once, and when I'm alone? I learned that it's o.k. to rely on others at times. I'm not very good at asking for help. I felt very blessed, because our Bishop and his wife live just up the road from us. He took Bronson to school, went to the store for me, and they brought us homemade chicken noodle soup. My good friend took Avery one of the days I was so sick. I'm so grateful for such loving and kind people. I'm also so grateful that Brad never has to leave us for a month at a time again! He is done with rotations and I'm so glad.
