Lingering Sadness

Spring Break was supposed to be fun, I was able to visit with sister Rhonda, but there were some tragic events that took place. A week ago, my only living grandparent (GG Evelyn) was in a car accident, she is in the Nuero Intensive Care Unit at Sparrow with a collapsed lung. She has been under heavy medication and a ventilator to help her breathe. She had a trake (sp) put in on Monday for breathing and eating because she can't do any of that on her own. I know she is tough and will pull through. Very early last Friday morning, our very good friend Destinee's brother was in a high-speed car accident and did not make it. The memorial services were Monday and Tuesday of this week and so it has been a time of mourning and sadness. Our only comfort is that God has a plan for everyone, and things happen for a reason. The death of Dusty brings emotions from when Erik passed away, no parent should have to go through something like that, but we just need to keep on going and remember all of the fun and wonderful memories.
