Visit with Jill

I was at work this morning catching up on some stuff and my cell rang - it was Jill's mom. After some chatting, she called me back and said "Jill would like to see you!" I was so excited! (If you haven't read my post about Jill, read it...right before this one) I closed up shop and headed for the hospital.

When I got there, she was sitting up in a chair. I mean...come'on...the girl got a new liver YESTERDAY and she's in a chair! You go, girl! She has (excuse me, this is kind of gross) a tube down her nose and she says "Don't you like my new accessory?" I told her she could have at least chosen a colored band aid and not a nude one that blends in with her face. She said when she woke up, she actually thought they bent her nose because all she could see when she looked down was the tube and band aid. LOL! Can you imagine...having to get plastic surgery b/c the surgeon bent your nose? Anyways, I couldn't believe how good she looked! Her color was less "jaundice" and she looked pink. Her eyes were whiter. I just wanted to squeeze her and tell her how glad I was that she was alive, but I opted for touching her hand and telling her I was proud of her. Jill, I hope you know what an inspiration you are to everyone. You are a precious, precious gift from God and I'm so blessed to be a part of your LIFE!

Jill - the "green" is for you!!!
