Bring on the Rain!

I am ready, my Mother in Law gave our family poncho's for Father's Day. That must of meant I was ready for this weeks events.

I might need these:



Underneath the picture it said "Make a rainy day bright."




My husband is having kidney problems he came home on Wednesday because he could not stop vomiting. He had to be very sick, Sam will work through anything.

He came in the house and said "You have to get me into the Doctor's something is really wrong with me."

I called and got him an appointment and he was showering. Stockton came and asked me "Can I go ride my bike?" I told him "5 minutes is all you have."

Well in two minutes I heard a scream from outside that made my stomach turn, and I met him in the laundry room with a bloody face. I mean bloody, he had torn the right side of his face off, and cut an artery in his face. He was coming down our hill on a Mtn Bike and looked down for a brief second and ran into the back of a parked Mini Van and went through the back windshield. THE KID WALKED HIMSELF HOME!! AND HE DID NOT CRY ONCE!! His helmet saved his eye and probably his life.

He is home recovering and has over 2 thousand stitches in his face. We are hoping it will take. He will follow up with probably 2 more surgeries after this.
He is very heartbroken about his face and doesn't want a lot of people to see him, especially the little girls, he thinks he looks like a monster and it will scare them. I still think he is beautiful and I look at him and think of all the miracles that are staring back at me for example: Why, or how does he have an eye? He is so lucky to not have cut and artery or anything else on his neck. Miracles I look and that is all I see, we are truly blessed. I am so thankful that God's hand is written all over his face.

I am very heartbroken for him and love him so much, and I am hoping that he recovers fast. We are in for a indoor summer only, he is not allowed to be in the sun due to scaring, so if you feel like sitting this is the house to visit.

As for Sam.....Well he isn't doing anything but getting his boy better right now and we have taken him off all his meds and he seems to kind of be feeling better but for now we will worry about it next week.

SO all I have to say is, I am flooded standing here in our rain, please send life preserver.

One more thing -- When I see a child without a helmet on, I will stop and take away their bike...just sayin'.
