Jesus, Lover of My Soul.
With each sunrise and day break, I am finding my strength in God growing stronger and stronger. In these last couple of days, I have been yet again reminded of how precious life is--more importantly, how precious family is. As I sat there in Room 105, surrounded by my family, close and extended, I realized this is what life is. Life is these moments that we spend sharing our greatest happiness and our deepest fears with those we love. As I held my grandma's hand and listened to my family interact with one another--I realized that tragedies, although sad, bring us closer than we could imagine.
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone--to thank all of my friends who have encouraged me with love and prayers. Thank-you from the bottom of my heart for the flowers and cards I've found on my doorstep--your care has brought my family much comfort. Thank-you for the emails and the phone calls, all of it is so very appreciated, I feel so blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. My grandma wanted me to make sure I thanked each of you from her for your prayers, they mean not only the world to us, but the world to her.
2 Corinthians 12:9
