This Thanksgiving is special for my family because my wife who has been waiting for a kidney received her miracle on November 21st. We got the call at 9pm on the 20th and were out the door with only the clothes on our backs to drive 4 hours to the transplant center.
Although this has caused a great upheaval in our life having to relocate to Miami for a month or more and me taking an extended leave from my job to be with her I am thankful to God for the amazing gift we have been given. Truly the gift of life!
To the donor family wherever and whoever you are know that your Son, though he is gone too soon because of a tragic accident his decision to be an organ donor saved my best friend and soul mate. Know that your precious gift has gone to allow an amazing woman to continue to bring light to everyone's life she touches.
We will trust in God that the next few challenging months will be met with the same grace we were granted all of these years. We promised to love each other "To have and to hold, for richer, for poorer-in sickness and in health all the days of our lives" God will provide.
Please pause everyone to count your blessings this Thanksgiving Day.
Thank you so much for Sharing!
