As you may or may not know, my wife has been hospitalized since Wednesday with some pretty serious health issues. I don't feel comfortable disclosing everything going on regarding her health, but it certainly isn't anything life threatening or anything TOO major. She can be treated and she'll fully recover, but it's going to take a few weeks for her to be completely back to "normal."
The outpour of support through my blog, her blog, emails, Twitter, the network - you name it - has been overwhelming. Words cannot express how thankful we are to have such a large amount of support from our friends in the DD community, and from those close to us. Times like this make me realize just how many truly genuine, caring, and supportive people there are in this world, and that's always refreshing to see/hear. So thank you all so very much for your overwhelming support. We'll get past this soon.
My wife also wanted me to make it clear that she has not "disappeared." Lol. She wants to continue blogging and continue being involved in the DD community. Once her pain and comfort levels are tolerable, she'll get back to doing what she does so well.
Once again, on behalf of my entire family, I'd like to thank you all for your support as we go through this difficult time. I'm doing everything I can to get my wife back to normal health, and there's no doubt in my mind that she will come out of this experience a stronger, healthier person. She has a knack for taking a negative experience and turning it into something positive. That's just the spirit of Chelsea.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend everyone. Until next time.
Will continue to keep you and your family in our prayers. May you find strength and peace through God during this difficult time.

I hope Chelsea soon recovers. It is hard to be sick and worry about your child and family in order to recover.

Chelsea you truely are an amazing person still thinking of others during a rough time of your own. Clint your words of your wife are absolutely beautiful and inspiring. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry you are in pain Chelsea, but it is a relief to learn that you will make a full recovery. I have been praying for strength for you and Clint and will continue to do so as you get through this difficult time. You are missed and in my thoughts. Thanks to you and Clint for thinking of us.
ReplyDeleteLuv you guys... my heart is breaking to think of you in pain, I pray for comfort and strength for the both of you. May the God of healing and mercy surround you with Angels and Friends and Family to support you through this time.
ReplyDeleteYou and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be there. Chelsea, I wish you a complete and speedy recovery! :)
ReplyDeleteOur thoughts are with you Clint. c
ReplyDeleteYou are both stil in my thoughts and prayers. Thanks for the update. I have found myself checking your blogs several times a day just for the news that she will be alright. All the best Chelsea! Clint don't forget to take time for yourself to destress. It is incredibly difficult to balance work, the needs of a small child and an ailing spouse. Please don't compromise your own health in the process. Wishing you both the best.

I am so glad to hear Chelsea is recovering. I have to say when I read the title "The Spirit of Chelsea" my breath stopped and the worst thought entered my mind. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers, Lucy
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear of your pain Chelsea and relieved to hear you are recovering and, in time, will be back to your old self. I pray for a speedy recovery for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Clint for the update. Your words about Chelsea are just lovely. You are both in my thoughts during this difficult time.
Theres no place like home. I am so happy you are home, healing, and on the road to recovery. I will continue to pray for you and your family. Soon the pain will be forgotten but the look on your sons face you will remember forever.
ReplyDeleteChelsea, so happy you are home but please don't push yourself too hard/fast and Clint, please remember to take good care of yourself as you take care of your wonderful wife and beautiful boy.
ReplyDeletePraying for all of you,

Praying for you and your family.I am glad to hear that you are home. There is no place like home to recover, surrounded by the ones you love. Please take care of yourself! Prayers are with you!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I'm so relieved and happy to know Chelsea is all right! I've been praying for her like crazy, and for your whole family. And I will continue to!
ReplyDeleteAnd to Chelsea: you're such an amazing person, so strong and brave. Yes, no matter how difficult it is, you WILL get through this! Hang in there, girl, and know there's a lot of people that love you and are pulling for you! Hugs! :)
I am just seeing this post and I had no idea. Certainly prayers are with you even now and wishing Chelsea a very speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteTake care, Regards,
It's fairly clear to me that you should not beat your wife anymore. I think the two of you should try to find some healthy way to solve your issues. Take psychiatric help if necessary.
ReplyDeleteIf you can't say something nice - just go away.
Delete@lifeasyouliveit If anything was clear to you then you wouldn't be making a comment like that. One domestic discipline is not beating your wife two if anyone should seek psychiatric help that would be you three have you read Clint and Chelsea's blogs it doesn't take a genius to realize they have one of the most solid,beautiful,respectful,loving marriage. Another thing she is recovery from surgery show some respect and pray for her and her family as I will be praying for them and you.
DeleteWhy are you here???
DeleteI hope Chelsea has a speedy recovery. On a side note Clint, I don't know if you're aware of this, but when I try to go to your blog I get a warning that malware has been attached to it. I'm not sure if there's anything you can do (I'm not a tech type), just thought you'd like to know.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel strong, happy, and healthy soon, Chelsea. Take good care of yourself, and if you are like me....then may God grant you patience while you recover because I get VERY restless when I am supposed to slow down :)
ReplyDeletePrayers for you!
