2 Years to the Day!
So today is 2 years to the day of Justin's accident. Today I thought back to the day of the accident and how we were told by the Dr.'s that his chances of pulling through were slim. Our emotions were so up & down. No one could tell us if he would live through the night or at all. I remember looking at his body and how hurt he was, Justin was so Strong and took such good care of himself I know that helped him a lot. I also know that so many people were praying for him to pull through that he just had to show us he could do it. And he did!! I totally believe in the power of pray and what it can do. It helped Justin as well as us to get this far. I remember thinking he just had to wake up, that our life's would not go on if he didn't. I asked him to hold on and fight that there was so much more for all of us to do and see that It wasn't his time yet. The road to recovery has been a very long and hard one. It still amazes me that most days he wakes up and welcomes the day with a smile. I have a hard time doing that. I have to say that he keeps us going. How can we give up because things are hard, when they are the very hardest for him and he does it! Don't get me wrong he has his times, but who wouldn't when you have gone through all that he has and still continues to. I am so very Thankful that he fought for his life! Even if things are different now, we have him to love and for him to love us. I have to give my mom a thumbs up for all she does everyday. She still works full time and takes care of Justin every evening. She is so strong and never seems to lose her cool. ;) She has worked so hard to help Justin get where he is today!! Thank you Mom. I don't know what Tuft would do without you or me as well. I just want Justin to know how much he means to us. The isn't a single time of day that I don't think about him. Everyday something reminds me of the good old days. Sometimes I just start crying and my kids just look at me and think what did we do now? Now they just don't ask and just give me a big hug. I don't know what I do without them. All I can say is tell your family you love them everyday! Life is short and you never know when things might change!!
