This morning during our morning prayers I said something bit different than I normally would say. Becky and I are planning on taking a little mini get-a-way to Madison this weekend. Drew does not handle change very well and Mom sometimes gets stressed when we have timelines to get everything done. So in my prayer I said “Don’t panic” thinking that was aimed at those 2, but little did I know it was pointed at me.
A few hours ago I got word that my father needs to have bypass surgery on heart. After a quick prayer of my own and a short chat with Dad on the phone, I am calm, cool and collected. This is the 1st time dad has ever been admitted to a hospital. Not too bad for a guy entering his 76th year. There’s a reason that my sister Nancy, a RN and her family live in Pittsford with my Mom and Dad. THANK YOU so much for your selfless services and being there for them!
Thank you Heavenly Father for the right words to say this morning and thank you for allowing me to take them to heart.
I love you dad, everything is going to be okay. No need to panic!
