Baby Diana and I, along with New Hope nurse Lily from our Luoyang unit and baby Marina from our Zhengzhou unit, arrived swiftly and soundly at the Sanatorium to our home for the next months. We're fresh out the gates and ready to hunker down and do this!
This will be my third and by far longest stretch as temporary mommy during Diana's hospitalization and treatment--and that's even factoring in the 2.5 weeks I get to take off in the middle! (It just so happens that one of our nurses will be in HK and can relieve me for a bit.)
The decision to postpone my fall travel plans to extend my time at New Hope and take on this mission took about a second to make--after all, I had been secretly wishing that I could be Diana's carer; and Mongolia and the rest of China will still be there after all this won't it?
Really though, in our lives, how often can we be a part of a miracle that completely changes the course of someone's life, and be the bearers of hope where there was none?
