Yesterday Keith realized that he is closer than he has ever been to not being able to walk. This realization really shook both he and I . We cried, we prayed, we talked of possibilities and we tried not to be afraid of the future. We know that the Lord loves us and will provide whatever we need. It was soon to become evident.
You see, we had 12 people come by and visit and encourage us. We were trying to be strong on our own, but it was only as soon as we were willing to share our realness, our fears, our sadness, our hurt, our losses, that we were surrounded with this love. Our friends and family came immediately. They were willing to play Farkle with Keith. That means a lot. Like I said, a 20 minute game of Farkle is just about the right amount of time to visit Keith because he gets tired. I finally saw a big smile and heard his laughter. Thanks all of you.
Also, we want to thank Rod and Andy for helping with yard work. Thank you Jim for coming when we needed you.
