Upcoming Events in My Family and My Life
Hey everyone,
There are some things that I would like to bring up. Good news and bad news, I will start with the good news first since that is always a good thing... I think.
My family and I decided to take a family vacation this year. And trust me we need it so very much. Considering (some of the bad news) things aren't looking to brightly upon us for this year. I have grown very strong needless to say in these past months preparing myself for what might and might not happen.
Also Philip came for a visit which also broke alot of the stress and tension I was feeling. He's a very wonderful young man. And it was refreshing to see and talk to him in person about these issues since they had been bugging me for quite awhile.
Alright... well the bad news is..... My little sister Hannah is going for her second open heart surgery this year in either August or September. God has been wonderful to us and she's been such a blessing... but things are yet again not looking to brightly upon us. With this upcoming surgery she's also not expected much life expectancy so we are bracing ourselves for the worst but yet leaving it all the Lord's hands. "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away."
My mom is the one I am most worried about I mean we are all hurting and worried but my mom I think will have the worst of it in worry attacks... she keeps telling me that she tries to put away the 'what ifs' from her mind but it just doesn't seem to work. And she randomly sits and starts crying over her Bible... lately the Crying attack have been getting lesser as she braces herself but I know it's really hard on her and I don't know what I am going to do after if things don't go that well... I might head to Langley.
I am thinking of asking a special someone to come and be there for my mom at the hospital during the operation because my mom is going to need a Christian woman there for her to cry too, I know she had such a hard time last time even though my daddy was there, she'll still cry whether or not the operation goes well. But I will ask the question at the appropriate time. I am willing to even go so far as to pay the way for her stay. But I know she has a busy household of her own.
I am trying to stay optimistic. But circumstances keep coming up that crash them down... I really just don't know what to say about the subject anymore. (I usually can think of stuff to say to keep people going) but in this case even I will be at a loss for words, much less breath.
I would appreciate prayers and love,
Love,
Esther
