~~GRANDPA ROBERT'S HOSPITAL STAY~~

My dad recently spent 5 nights in the hospital (3 of them in the ICU) for a bleeding ulcer.  It was a very emotional and scary time for us as we went a couple of times each day to give him a hug and let him know how much we loved him.  There was a point we thought this was it and he wasn’t going to make it.  This experience made me really stop and think have I spent enough time with him, served him, hugged him and said I love him enough?  I am so beyond grateful for a loving Heavenly Father that gives us life experiences and people to surround us with and love.  I love my family so much and am so grateful for each one of them and their amazing examples of love and service!!
