What a difference 24 hours can make.

From gracing the stage in an attempt to inspire hundreds of Christian Educators with his testimony, to his unexpected first trip in an ambulance to emergency surgery all in less than 24 hours.

As very involved parents, we’re our kid’s biggest cheerleaders when everything is Heavenly and their biggest prayer-worriers when all Hell breaks loose. One thing that I will always know for sure is that the unexpected always happens unexpectedly and you should always have a wildcard in your pocket so you can call-in a favor from a very capable Creator, hint-hint.

Yes, we were totally blindsided by a rare occurrence with Little “C” that caused him to experience excruciating pain. Shaking, shivering, numbness, cramping, etc, etc. was the symptoms and to top it all off, the ER computer systems were down and they were reduced to a 1930’s system of operations which dramatically slowed down the process and it scared the living bajeebers out of us. Then came the 10 milligrams of morphine and suddenly things started to change with the pain. 🙂

From poise on the stage in one hour and poise enduring incredible suffering in the next, this little guy continues to inspire me in many different ways. His strength actually gave me strength and his managing to keep it together actually helped me to do the same. I’m sure glad he shares my name. 🙂

Yes, all suddenly went on “pause” for a few scary hours but all is now back to “well” in Camelot with the Crawford’s. Full recovery is underway and he lives to fight another day. A valuable reminder here indeed, sometimes those who we’ve inspired may eventually turn around and inspire us. 🙂

Feeling Inspired……. 🙂

Just an FYI for those who were wondering.
