One Year Ago

One year ago I was sitting in the ER with my parents, wondering what was wrong with my dad. He had a simple cough that wouldn't go away. A Dr. came in and told him he had Stage IV Lung Cancer. He had 2 1/2 liters of fluid in his lungs that needed to be drained and his future was looking grim. We were all so shocked and disheartened, how could anything be the same again? Well...things are not the same. We have a fresh perspective on life. We appreciate each and every moment we have and we feel the Lord's hand in all things. We have experienced MIRACLES through this and our faith has been renewed. Our dad is doing great, feeling better, and the cancer has shrunk and some has even disappeared. Today we celebrate LIFE, COURAGE, FAITH, HOPE and MIRACLES! We love you Dad!!
