A quick trip to Kentucky

Debbie got a strange phone call the week before Easter and learned that her father, Terry, was in the hospital in Burkesville, Ky. There was only one proper thing to do -- load up, jump on a plane and head to the Bluegrass.

Forget about medicine and some pharmaceutical voodoo. Debbie knew the best medicine anyone could receive was to get a surprise visit from their granddaughter. Once we landed in Nashville and drove to Kentucky, we busted into Terry's hospital room and he bolted straight up out of bed. Debbie didn't tell anyone that we were coming in, so the entire family was shocked that we could make a surprise visit on such short notice.

The best thing about the entire trip was that Terry's condition improved almost overnight, and he was released on Saturday. The second best thing was that Ady got to spend Easter in Kentucky with all of Debbie's family, who doesn't get to see her that much over the course of the year.
