I know I have been nothing but a Debbie Downer lately (and seriously, I have little use for emotion most of the time. I'm an emotion bottler), but if Luke's condition does not improve in the next 24 hours or so, they are going to take him off the respirator. I'm not quite at peace about that yet, but I am getting there. We found out last night, had a restless night, and an overall emotional day today. At church this morning (which was said for Luke), I don't think Father knew the latest news and he asked Luke's grandma to give an update. She didn't know what to do, and so gave a tearful update. I was at least prepared, but I know most of the other people there were not. Eli's baby-sitter (also a relative) took care of Luke from infancy till he went to school and she did not take the news well. I almost left school early to pick up Eli from her, but decided that would be in no one's best interest. She needed someone to hug her and I hope Eli was cuddlier than normal. In running news:
I did most of my workout today, but I skipped 1 400 @ 5K pace and 1 1200 @ 10K pace because it was dark and the 3 other people who had been running on the track were getting ready to leave. I did 1 400, 1 1200, and then 2 x 3200 @ HM pace. I hit my paces on everything but the 400, where I was 4 seconds slow. I'm trying to get my mind back into running just to give it some distraction, but it's hard. I skipped my run on Sunday for no good reason, other than to clean house for Eli's b-day and to spend time with family.
