What a year so far...

Life sure has unexpected twists and turns. Just when you think all is going well... we got a call 9pm or so January 26th that my dad was on his way to Covenant Saginaw from the hospital in Cadillac... We arrived about the same time he did (11pm) and were told it wasn't very good at all by the doctor. He had a severe tear and brain bleed, causing a hematoma about the size of a tennis ball near the brain stem. We went in to see dad, he was on a ventilator and unresponsive. I won't go into many details, but he spent the next 12 days in the hospital, pretty much in the same condition, never really responding... So, on February 6th, we let Dad go to heaven. What a day. This has been just as hard as losing Danielle almost 8 years ago. Our hearts ache so much! I know we will adjust with time, but we miss Danielle just as much as we did the day she died and it will be the same with my Dad. He was a good dad, grandpa, husband and friend... We sit here and say, it's so hard to believe he isn't here on this earth anymore... We've looked through hundreds of pictures the last week and a half and it's amazing all the memories come flooding back! So, I will miss you Dad, but never good bye, only see you later!
