Happy Easter

Our first Easter without Dad was  sad and heartbreaking. Emotions were high and things really didn't go as well as they should have. I'm sure each holiday will get better as time goes on.

I just love this picture of Liam snuggled up in his Great Grandpa's sweater. My Dad would have loved to snuggle with him. Liam has got several guardian angels looking over him.

It's A Zippity Do Dah Day

The day we brought Noah home from the hospital, I found out my Dad was in the hospital and not doing well.
On Feb. 4th Heaven gained another Angel. My Dad walked into the sunset having a Zippity Do Dah Day. My Dad had always said he  wanted Zippity Do Dah played at his funeral. If you haven't seen the video of Uncle Reemus singing that song, look it up on YouTube. It was perfect......

This picture was taken the Wednesday before Noah was life flighted. You can really see how bad he felt. I miss you Dad, I'm glad I took the time to visit with you often.

 

             This is the way I like to remember  my Dad. 

Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day Scott. I wouldn't want to do this life without you.

 

I would also like to wish my Dad a Happy Fathers Day too. Love you, Daddy!!!!

What A Week

On Thursday August 26th my Dad was life flighted to Riverside in Columbus Ohio. He had lost over half his blood due to a bleeding ulcer.

My amazing Mom sat by his side for days. She sure is an awesome caregiver to my Dad. My siblings and I talked her into going home for the night to sleep in her own bed. I had the pleasure of spending the night with my Dad in his ICU room.

After a week in ICU Dad was transferred to a regular room. 

He spent 3 days in step down and then was finally transferred back to Shelby.

Due to Crestwood being full he is at Shelby Pointe receiving therapy to regain his strength.

He was so happy to finally see his little Lady again.

Keep working hard Dad, you'll be home in no time.

Through all of this I've been so proud of Noah. Starting with when I went to New York City and now dealing with my Dad, Noah hasn't made himself sick at all. He's been a trooper through it all an has come along way.
