Remembering

Exactly 3 years ago tonight my wife was fighting for her life. I was absolutely convinced that this night 3 years ago would be her last night alive on this earth. I wish I had the words to express the utter despair and loneliness I felt while sitting in that Henry Ford Hospital hallway. In fact, in about 5 hours from now (2:30 AM) I was told she had just a few minutes to live... My brother watched from a distance as I pleaded with the doctor to do his best work as he emergently removed my wifes skull.

Rachel and I went to dinner tonight with our beautiful daughter Abbey and Rachel's parents (Brad and Sue Stevens) and my parents (Garth and Pat Pleasant). While everyone else enjoyed a meal and visited...I quietly celebrated the moment and gave thanks.

I count each and every day with her a blessing because 3 years ago I stayed up all night...and I now have the "terrible gift" of knowing what it feels like to have to live without her...

Words could never express how grateful I am for each and every person who read this blog and prayed...it gave me strength for several weeks that I'm convinced I would not have had otherwise.

Forever Indebted,

Klint
