Happiness is Not…

8

Being in the Children’s Pediatric Hospital right now, after having spent the past 24 hours in two separate emergency rooms with your child.

I apologize to those who are waiting for my next post on my search for significance. Life throws curve balls at us, and we need to tend to those situations first and foremost.

Please pray for my son Zach, as he is sick, and currently in the hospital hooked up to an IV. This is definitely not the best part of parenting.

I will say that you truly find out how much you love the people in your life when you see them like this. Emaciated, lifeless, in tremendous amount of pain.

I’d give anything right now if I could take his place…

    Brian, I’m sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you and your family.

  6. Everyone, thanks so much for leaving comments - even getting encouragement from people I don’t know (although becoming virtual friends) is helpful. I’ll try to leave an update sometime later tonight or tomorrow morning!

    Brian - our prayers are with you and yours just now.
