Words cannot describe how happy we were to return home after two weeks in the hospital in Colorado Springs! Mike had major surgery on December 1st for stomach problems. So much stress for a few weeks while he lay in bed struggling in pain and I wandered around the hospital, sleeping in his room for five nights after Airb&b screwed up my reservation. (I hate them now…Don’t ask)

But our doc and the nursing care was excellent, catching an extra infection along the way, and finally booting us out on the 14th. Now we are struggling through changes in diet and exhaustion.

But we were so glad to be greeted by the beautiful Spanish Peaks when we finally arrived home!
