Sitting here in the hotel room in Kingsport I thought about my dad. I went to http://www.alzquilts.org/ and submitted my memory of Dad. It's been 4 months since he left us and I think of him a lot. I sometimes wonder why, why did MY dad have to get that dreaded disease and will I get it. Some of you are probably wondering why I decided to put a certain scipture verse on my blog. Well, you see the night Dad passed I told him it was ok to go. We kids would take care of Mom, when I said that he looked at me, I mean really looked at me. Two tears rolled down his cheek and I wiped them away telling him it was ok to go and we loved him. I asked the hospice nurse if they were truly tears or were his eyes just watering. She asked what I thought and I told her they were truly tears. She told me to look up Revelations 21:4 and read it and that it meant I would be with Dad when he passed. I looked it up, read it, and was with Dad when he passed. So, this verse has taken on a very special meaning to me, it is now probably my favorite verse.
I miss him everyday, but know that he watches over me as does my darling lil daughter! They are both in a better place, free from pain, harm, and all the other things we are experiencing here!
Til next time,
M
