Ropes & Knots

I apologize for the long time between posts. For those of you that like to read between the lines, it means life has been too chaotic, horrendous and sad. We have had a few bright spots, just enough to keep us hanging on. We are very sorry for not keeping in touch with those who email us...please do not be offended. We beg just a little more grace...we know we are at our limit!

Dave is settling in to his care facility, we purposely do not call it a "home", it just hurts to much. Dave is my Home and I am His as we journey together towards our heavenly Home! The facility where Dave is staying is new and it is beautiful! He is well taken care of, a favorite, of course! His friends are great! They come by all the time! It is well known Dave likes his Starbucks, sometimes they are stacked 5 deep in the refrigerator! Bless you guys! You are a knot in our rope, that helps us hang on!
This is a private facility where Public Heath owns 1 bed, please pray with us that Dave can stay a long while. He is on a wait list for an Acute Care Facility, which would be the equivalent of moving from a 5 Star Hotel to a Super 8! You get the picture? This Sunday Dave hosted a Superbowl Party for about 20 guys, the guest of honor? our son. Josh you are another knot in our rope...

There is a huge room, with a big fireplace and a large screen T.V. Lots of beautiful sofa's, chairs etc. Through double doors is a quaint country kitchen with round tables and chairs ulpostered in ivy print, it has become a tradition through two lovely families that we eat there every Sunday night together. Friends we have known for almost 20 yrs, this act of kindness is yet another a knot on our rope. Anyone who has known you that long and still loves you is truly a gift from God...
