Wow! So much truth to that! Thank you Michele and thank you Uncle Dave!!I know that growing up in our house, we didn't always "say" the words. Matter of fact, it wasn't until my mom and dad moved to Florida that I remembered having that empty feeling inside...and then all of those feelings of regret for not saying the words all of those years! That was my first wake up call! From that moment on, I was always telling them that I loved them! Unfortunately, it was now when I talked to them on the phone versus leaving their house. It just goes to prove that you don't know what you've got til it's gone! But thankfully, they had only moved to Florida, so it was my "wake up call" instead! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! :)A quick update on my dad....His medicine was approved by the insurance company! He should be getting it soon! They have to run another test on his legs, one called an MRA. It's like an MRI, but they put some dye in his arteries first. We are praying for some relief of the pain in his legs and in his abdomen. Hopefully, with some re-gained strength, they can make the trip up to Kentucky for a quick visit. I am trying to schedule a trip to Florida to see them as well....maybe in March?I'll keep you updated!! Thank you to everyone reading this blog for your thoughts and prayers!! Prayer is a powerful thing! We are grateful for everyday that we have here on earth!!!Love,Turtle
