IN THE MIDST OF HOSPITAL CHAOS, A BIRTHDAY PARTY 10-18-16




Being a patient in the hospital has its' problems, stresses, questions, and uncertainties. 
It's a place where you trust your health,  well being and even your life into the hands of others.
You live with this trust and hope that these people are making the right decisions in your behalf. 
You also have faith that they are going to do the right thing for you.
This can create a roll- a- coaster of emotions to evolve and flow out!
In the midst of this confusion and chaos of hospital life, I had a birthday party!
Chaplains of the Pastoral Care Department, of the hospital I where I am treated medically, gave me a Birthday Party!
Doctors, nurses and others, who worked on this medical unit,  strolled in and enjoyed awesome company and delicious cake!
The hospital is an environment known for bad news, acute health problems, life and death struggles and other negative stuff.
Today, the hospital wasn't just an institution.
Today, it became personal!
In the midst of the craziness of the hospital, I was given a Birthday Party!
I'm fighting health crisis and, physically, I do not feel well much of the time!
I'm blessed that I can go to a hospital where I am shown so much love,  concern and generosity.
This just astounds me!
God, most definitely, puts me where I need to be!
With sincerity, hope and love and gracious gratitude to all of those who care for me in the hospital,
