Here it is, folks!
How to start? I guess as abruptly and fragmented as this life change arose. My husband had a stroke December 31, 2015. He was 46 years old. I'm not going to go into the details for two reasons.
1. I've discovered that everyone has a story, and often the narrator is the only one listening to it and being affected.
2. Today is my birthday, and I choose not to relive it right now.
I will say that I never thought something so horrible could result in so many wonderful things. I know that sounds weird, right? But in some ways it's true. I've seen compassion I wasn't sure existed. My walk with God is stronger. I get to be with my husband all the time. I've realized I'm stronger than I ever dreamed in many ways. And the laughter,,,we can't forget the laughter, without it I don't know how we would have gone forward.
I have a feeling most my blogs will be interrupted...like now. Oven repairman just called to say he's on his way, school called to clarify lesson plans, and Bruce woke up so we need our morning time together.
