Deanna........thanks for your support! You are right.........revisiting Ron's hospital stay was & continues to be "hard". It is the main reason it took me so long to respond back to the group after we returned home. I found the that after the months of holding my emotions in & feeling like a zombie.......the flood gates opened after we were home. It seemed both Ron & I cried with every conversation, we both teared up at the slightest thing. I in particular could not talk to or about Ron's doctors or nurses without crying! I am not a crier....more of a stoic person.........boy, I felt so weird crying all the time. I really could not sit down & retell these events during that time........it felt like digging in a big open wound. Thankfully both Ron & I are beginning to heal now in that area too! One of the surprises in retelling the events for you guys was Ron's reaction........he hangs over my shoulder while I write with comments like "Oh, that what yall were doing." Or "I didn't know about that". So much of what I write is my viewpoint of course & I forget that Ron just wasn't really there to see & know the things that went on. It has been quite eye-opening & educational for him also!

Suzanne & Ron: I cried and felt so remorseful for the trials and tribulations you and the family endured. I hold you both in the highest esteem. Thank you for sharing. How in the world did you ever find the courage to revisit those days and nights?
