dem bones, oh, woe

It's been a flat-out AWFUL string of months; I couldn't bear to post anything. Marty had knee surgery, and long story short, he contracted MRSA (aka "flesh-eating bacteria") and now he's in a wheelchair with NO KNEE. He has a "spacer" in his leg that keeps his leg straight (since there's nothing that can bend) while they're fighting to beat the infection. He's been so sick, and we still don't know what the outcome will be. It's a terrible time.

I'm coping with it as best I can, but I'm basically not handling it well, I know. I just go to work, try to stay focused, and keep praying. A lot.
