I have to say that I would not be where I am today without the support of my family, friends, and even strangers. Seeing that people are reading this blog makes me feel supported. Phone calls, texts, cards and small gifts, especially on the hard days are especially supportive. I feel supported by the power in prayers that many are still offering in our behalf. I feel supported when someone cries with me, hugs, or even just listens to our story. This support strengthens me and makes it possible for me to face the hard days, the not so hard days, and even the easier days.
My biggest support comes from Lawrence. He listens to me, he encourages me, he prays for me, and most of all, he has stuck with me. I'm sure there have been times that he has been frustrated with me, in fact I know there has been. But despite it all he has stuck by my side, always holding my hand and walking through the haze with me. He is stronger than me and I need that strength every day. Before we dated we became friends. While we were dating Lawrence grew to be my best friend. When we got married he became my husband. But he is so much more than that to me, he is all these and more. Lawrence is everything to me, he is my husband, my best friend, my biggest supporter, my strength, and everything in between. I am so very incredibly grateful that I was led to be in a position to meet Lawrence, date him, and marry him. I am beyond grateful for his strength, his faith, and his support.Thank you to everyone who has helped support us in any way. Thank you for your continued prayers, thoughtful gifts, cards, and comments, and for your listening ears and reading eyes. Thank you for lending us your strength when ours is failing. And my biggest thanks to Lawrence for putting up with me and for carrying and sometimes dragging me along for these last three years, and for being willing to stick with me into eternity.
