This is the day that the Lord has made.  We will rejoice and be glad in it.  Psalm 118:24
 
Each day, I wake up either to a lady in green bringing me food or a lady in turquoise cleaning my room. I lay there for a while praying and pick up my Bible. Mom and I talk while she helps me get breakfast. It is weird having people always serve me, everything from food to changing my bed pan (yay humility). I have yet to sit up completely, but I feel it coming. It is beautiful because I am always looking up. I want to encourage you all to LOOK UP more. It is amazing how when my eyes are on Him, my problems and the things of this world don’t seem so important. Anyways, the day continues with all the doctors from the clinic coming in to the room to check on me. Dan, Becky, and Nancy come each day to spend time with me. I love constantly hearing  Nancy saying, “Praise you Jesus, Praise you Lord.”. We always pray. Sometimes, we pray together, share food, play cards, read the Bible and sing to God. There is much laughter, which is hard to handle because it causes extreme pain to my pelvis.

Throughout the day, the smiling nurses come in and out to check on me and give me pain meds, anti-inflammatory meds, and the stuff that makes me not get sick from laying in this bed 24/7.  We always have random visitors, fellow believers, that come in and bless us. Whether it be prayers, flowers, or just spending time sharing their hearts, it is amazing to be surrounded by love and learn more about Romania. They are constantly offering their homes and anything they can. For example, today, a lady mom met at church yesterday, visited us. Amanda is a nurse and she helped us with many of our medical questions. She has such a beautiful heart for women and God. She blessed us with amazing homemade peanut butter brownies and a hand massage. It was great to spend time with her. It is a miracle we even met her and others. Thank God that Catalin, the C.E.O. of the clinic I am in, took mom, Becky and Dan to church. They prayed over them in Romanian and English, and numerous people came up after Church, offering their prayers, homes, and services; a variety of people from those who work at the American  Embassy to Doctors and teachers. Thank you God for taking care of my mom and letting her feel at home.
 

 
 In the afternoons, three beautiful ladies come to do the ultra sound every 2 days. Most recent news: no fluids in the lungs, stomach or spleen, less internal bleeding, and only three fractures (instead of four) on my pelvis. Soon after, Ciprian, my physical therapist, comes in. Last time, in regards to me moving my left leg on my own, he said, “First victory, more to come.”   Progress.  Dinner is always pretty good, complete with meat, veggies, bread, and dessert.  But this day in particular, we were blessed by a Patrick and Mindy Klansek, a missionary family we recently met, who brought us homemade Mexican food. The Lord is good. We all hang out and spend time with God and encourage each other. Sometimes we lose Dan for a while due to the magnificent view of  Dynamo Stadium from our room. Romanian fans were banned from the game due to previous fighting, but Dan watched Greece beat Romania 1-0. My room is full of flowers, love, food, and peace.  Each day is different, full of little miracles and surprises.
