Hold On, Dad!!

Last week, our church had Vacation Bible School.  Each year there is a theme statement for the night which the children follow with the motto for the week.  The themes were:

God Has the Power to Provide

God Has the Power to Comfort

God Has the Power to Heal

God Has the Power to Forgive

God Has the Power to Love Forever

The week's motto was: HOLD ON!

On Wednesday afternoon just before I was going to get in the shower to begin getting ready for VBS, my mom called saying news no one wants to hear but everyone thinks they may get one day.  My dad had fallen at work due to a heart attack and now he was in the ER.  

The last six days have been like scenes from a movie.  He did have a heart attack followed that night with a stroke.  He has been on life support in the Neuro ICU ever since.  I'm letting everyone know of all the details on a Caring Bridge journal.  Please follow us there.  I'll post here for general everyday stuff about our family, but Dad's journey to health will be on Caring Bridge.

Dad, we want you to keep fighting and HOLD ON!!!  We know the Lord Jesus can work a miracle if He chooses to.
