I had a dream this morning
It was about my Dad
In the dream he was whole again
Healthy, smiling, laughing, walking
Talking about his journey
How he could hear all of us
Talking to him, praying w/ him
How thankful he was that we never gave up
I awoke from the dream with a kiss goodbye from my husband who was leaving for work. I told him about it immediately, he said "that's a really nice dream" and hugged me. Rick has always had a lot of respect for my father....for how hard he works and the person he is. I'm so thankful for Rick's support through all of this. He really has been a rock for all of us. He is visiting my Dad as I type.
Rick and my Dad on our wedding day. I can't believe it's been 11 years!

It's wonderful that your dad has so much support from all of you, and that you are all still hanging in there with him. We can only hope that things will get better from here. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To dream...the impossible dream...that's what it's starting to feel like. The rain pouring down today echos the tears in my heart. I didn't sleep last night.. heart pounding...so much fear..and worry. Your dad would always come over and hug me...and tell me it's going to be ok. I miss him so...I would give anything....well..you know. Another day...of walking through water and climbing mountains...want to give up...but I cannot. Knowing how strong his faith is..and knowing that for one second he would never stop praying (for us)or believing in a miracle. P.U.S.H.ing for that light to come back on in my life.
ReplyDeleteThese photographs are so beautiful...as are your words and your hopes...that will never change..love never fails. Each day brings its struggles but love overcomes...it may not bring the outcome we desire but we are forever changed for having not giving up. For giving that loved one the very best they deserve...and it is so obvious how much love this family has...it has been so touching and inspiring! Kraig, when you finally get to read this...hug your daughter for sharing your journey with us!! She is a gift!!
ReplyDeletePeace and prayer always

Lisa, I hope and pray that your dream comes true....Love you.
ReplyDeleteSherry keep strong please, I know it may sound easy to say ..but I truly mean it and I send you all my strength and faith , and of course a flow of prayers , he is with you , so you be with him unconditionally , please hang on , dont give up , keep PUSHing , until it hurts ..
ReplyDeleteLove,
Andy
I am praying so hard for you dear Sherry! May God give you the strength you need to get through this and help Kraig to come back to you. Love and hugs, May
ReplyDeletePraying for you Sherry and Lisa, yes Faith is tested every day, many times a day and I bet you are exhausted.
ReplyDeleteI did get off track taking my sister to The City Of Hope Hospital and my Faith felt weak, like I couldn't go on and care for her anymore. After seeing Lila's post for all of us, (she is an angel) I thought to myself, "What am I doing, don't slow down, don't question the Lord right now" and I quickly prayed for my sis, for Kraig, for you and Lisa and family. I fell off track for a couple hours but I'm back and I thank the Lord.
I will keep on P.U.S.H'ing for all of us.
I love the photos Lisa is posting, you are definately a very loving family and it shows so much in these wonderful photos.
Don't stop P.U.S.H'ing, and please take care of yourself as well.
Dear Lord, please give Sherry the strength she needs, she is praying to you, we all are, hear her prayers and our prayers, guide her as she is looking for a sign from you, please comfort her dear lord...Amen
Love and hugs,
Saffron
