Posted by Thomas on 9/27/2007, 7:00 pm They saw that she was bleeding around the drains; a side-effect of having thinner blood after surgery. However, they stopped the thinners now, because the bleeding was the bigger risk. I understand that, however, I'm still scared cold. I don't want her to die and I don't want her to have a stroke, etc. I've been praying and even today I delivered the Eucharist to her and about 6 other people in the hospital (I am an extraordinary minister of the Eucharist). She did great today, too. She will do great, I know it, I'm just scared. I'm going to ask her if she would like the resident priest here, Fr. James, to annoint her. I would ask him to do it without her permission, but I don't want to scare her, etc. Really, she's very much the "just the people from my parish" type of person... so I don't know what to do. I can't do it for her, that's for certain. Anyway, I'm rambling now. I need to shower and put on something comfy. Don't want to work tomorrow, don't want to work again, just want to spend every day next to her. Thanks for listening to me ramble.

I hurt. I went back to the hotel room to freshen up and I broke down and have been here a good 15 minutes doing nothing by crying and holding her Guinness fleece shirt.
