Patience and Prayers are needed...

My dad suffered a stroke last Saturday. It has been a rough few days.

...

For stroke victims, the first week or so is a waiting game. It could get worse before it gets better. This is to be expected. These are all the things we heard over the weekend. Things we keep repeating to ourselves.

My brother, his beautiful wife and I flew to Albuquerque this past weekend to be with my stepmother, Alice. Alice has the hardest job of all. She rarely leaves his bedside, she sleeps in his room at night.

...

Stephanie (my beautiful sister-in-law) and I are setting up a separate blog to give updates on his condition to help alleviate the number of times Alice has to recite the information about his current condition. It is a work in process, but you can find this blog by clicking here.

I wish for him to recover with all my heart...
