Joy & Melody

No, those aren't words that describe how I am feeling right now...in fact, I feel the opposite. But, these are the names of our two wondeful nurses tonight, and their names are a reminder to me of how I should strive to feel as I/we endure so much that we don't understand. I am posting tonight since I am unsure when I will get a chance tomorrow. Again, there has not been a great change in Paul's condition. However, we made the decision tonight to start him on a steriod. If some of this pain and suffering is caused by inflammation, then the steriod should have some positive effect in the next 48 hours or so, perhaps sooner. Tonight he is resting well. I don't know whether he is just exhausted, tired from pain, tired from drugs or some combination of all of the above. He is just resting well, and I hope it continues through the night. We are really in the midst of something that requires your prayers. Keep at it.
