This is has been filled with blessings and adversity. Each Dad Grandpa counts as a blessing and says that he’s still hear still working on it. Yet some of the most difficult times are those when you’re aware of the suffering of those you love.
And that was really made event when Uncle Jerry suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized and then later went in for a quadruple bypass February 18th. It' was a difficult to realize he's going to have such a complicated surgery with the implications also a diabetes. As he waited for the news it was difficult as it is for any parent. Yet he tried to stay upbeat and pray often for the comfort of the Holy Ghost to be with is son and the blessing of heaven to be manifest in his life.
The waiting was the hardest part. Grandpa Lindman and many other family members made their way to the hospital room where Jerry lay in a coma and added their faith and prayers to those of Sue and their family. Uncle Jerry has been slowly improving but returned once again to the hospital on April 20th with water in his lung again and was released after losing 11 lbs of fluid.
Please know that all the faith and prayers that have been offered his behalf from our family are so much appreciated. Lincoln said it well when he said,
“I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go.” Abraham Lincoln
