The past ten days has been like riding a roller coaster. Dink, my oldest brother, has had a rough ten days physically as well as mentally. His wife Rhonda, sons - Billy and Bobby, mother - Irene, and Mike and myself along with our spouses and children have been on that roller coaster with him. Monday, he endured three sessions of therapy which literally wore him out! Rhonda said he is determined to do what it takes to get out of there and home!!! He is able to speak some words which is a big improvement. I haven't seen him for a few days because of a head cold/sinus problem. I hope to see him today.
Today is Rhonda's birthday! She has been beside Dink's side. The one thing she would love to have as a birthday present is for Dink's recovery. We are still praying for that to happen. I know this is not going to be the best birthday Rhonda has had, and want to say we love you and pray that you and Dink can celebrate a "birthday observed" (that's what we say when we don't celebrate the birthday on the birthday date) in the very near future! HAPPY BIRTHDAY RHONDA - we all love you!!!!!
Dink and Rhonda have the biggest challenge before them - the determination and faith it takes to do what it takes for Dink's recovery. Dink has to do the physical and mental therapy, and Rhonda will be there beside him all the way - mentally just as stressed seeing what the love of her life is having to go through! We are praying not just for Dink, but Rhonda as well!!!
