Rehab following Hu's hospitalization was a learning curve for me. It was filled with new medical procedures and special exercises that would become a new part of our routine when we were discharged. We also met folks whose prognosis didn't seem very promising.
Following those weeks, Hu had home therapy. I think that perhaps the Lord let us have the home therapy to give us a chance to process what we had learned and seen. Now that he is back in out-patient pulmonary therapy we see other patients who are struggling in life.
Recently, I had been thinking about how thankful we are that Hu is in this recovery period. This week we attended a lecture at rehab where we heard the story of a double lung and heart transplant survivor. It reinforced gratefulness in me, especially when she went around the room and asked each patient to tell their story thus far.
The chorus to one of Don Moen's songs sums up my thoughts this week:
God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in this heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time
