I come to you today feeling fairly overwhelmed and fragile, guts churning, tears still (after one week) brimming up and threatening to spill over, trying to be brave for the rest of the family,and dealing with a full head of insecurities affecting my daily everything. You can read about it on my blog, something both exciting and scary is happening in our home with my husband's return to work after being unwell and at home for 16 months with a debilitating lung disease.
I failed to mention on the blog (on purpose) he is working out of town during his orientating of the new portfolio, and I'm not there in the event of an emergency...and we've had alot of them. We do have a plan B if something requires me to be there with him in a jiffy but I hope I never have to use it.
I humbly ask you to pray for him, that all goes well and he doesn't accidentally come in contact with something to send him into a lung infection emergency. With his lung transplant on the horizon, it's a double edged sword. Be bored out of his mind at home or go back to work and try to maintain "normal" as best he can.
Oh my Lord and my God, please, please make me strong!

I, too, just read your blog, and will be keeping both you and your husband in prayer. When we are weak, God is strong. May He bless both you and your husband with peace and good health.

Renee-My husband suffered a heart attack 18 months ago. It was so difficult to watch him get on a plane for the first time afterwards...or leave the house for that matter, and the risk was nothing like what you are facing. I still pray daily for his health, and will offer a prayer for your husband as I do so.
