Over the past two days, Lacey has done well but continues to have fairly severe pain at times. She is taking less and less insulin every day and continues to have good sugar levels. For now, she is only taking 14 units of Lantus insulin in the morning and has not needed any insulin throughout the day for over a week now. She spends most of the day in bed and remains weak and very sore. She is able to eat anything she chooses but only small portions due to her small stomach (that will expand with time i'm sure). She said yesterday that she was expecting to feel better quicker but doctors warned us that this would be a lengthy recovery and even now she is much better than her "pancreas" days, so we are thankful. I have been back to work yesterday and today, and things are busy again, but we remain thankful to our God for His blessings, and we are so happy to be home. Lacey has her mother and aunt, and maybe other friends and family that come during the day while i work to sit with her and elyse. Her sugar is quite unstable at times and elyse is full time entertainment, so we appreciate the help from our beloved family during this difficult time. We are all so ready for a normal family life and home life, but we are thankful because each day is a day closer to that time....what is normal anyway? God never defined normal for any of us, we are thankful to be used by Him, whether we consider our lives "normal" or not. We appreciate the continued prayers and lacey just told me as i type that she will blog tomorrow so read and watch for her blog..it'll be good i'm sure! Please continue to pray for her renewed strength and patience as the healing process continues. Also pray that God's perfect peace will gaurd her heart and mind in Christ Jesus as she rests at home for the next few weeks.
