Patient Paws

Sweet Morgan had another uneventful day.  She continues to maintain her progress.  Neither up nor down, just resting peacefully. 

She is unable to say the same for her big sister, Wagg.  Her precious pooch has endured her first training session.  I forced the poor dog to sit at the steps and, at the call of Morgan's name, rush to the crib-side.  While she didn't seem to understand, at first, the dog of our dreams, quickly, picked up on the fact that if she went to a certain spot, there was a treat in her future.  This wonder dog has no idea what lies ahead of her, yet we all understand that she will soon be the best big sister anyone could have...just look at those eyes.  Our Morgan will be in good paws...Wagg is patiently awaiting her arrival at home...as are we...


We continue to stay prayerfully hopeful that Morgan will be home soon to give Wagg fits!  This Boykin Spaniel will, absolutely, be Morgan's best friend.  We are so anxious to see the two of them get to know each other and fall in love.  Let it be known that Wagg sleeps with one of Morgan's blankets, from the hospital, each night.  We can't wait for them to meet. 

Tomorrow, Elizabeth and I are going to take  break...  We will retreat to Tuscaloosa to see #1 LSU play #2 Alabama, in the "Game of the Century."  It will be nice for us to breathe.  While our minds and hearts will remain in Birmingham, with Morgan, we will attempt a chance at "normalcy,"...whatever that is...

Thank you all for your prayers.  Morgan and her team of caretakers are so appreciative, as are her parents, and her dog (not to make light of the subject).  From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU.

Seth and Elizabeth McCoin
