Day 16

Joanie's email: joaniecarle "at" gmail.com

Some may wonder why the "at" instead of @. I understand computers are often utilized to search for email address but they look for the "@" symbol. I'm trying to avoid burdening Joanie with spam. My work email has been burdened with spam and the latest trick is to realize that someone has hijacked my email address and I get a constant barrage of spam messages being returned to me as "undeliverable" since they've been sent with my return email address!

I spent the afternoon and evening with Joanie. She still feels tired from coughing instead of sleeping the night through. Her muscles ache and she has a mild headache from her coughing. They are treating her for the cough. They also listening very regularly for any unwanted sounds emanating from the lungs. So far, so good.

Joanie still doesn't want to talk to friends in person or on the phone. When I was there, we spent great amounts of time sitting and not talking. She caught up on reading cards people have been sending. Tomorrow, we'll catch up on emails and she hopes to get current on the blog so she can see what has happened over the past two weeks.

"Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! It will be done just as you believed it would." And his servant was healed at that very hour."
Matthew 8:12-14
