React/Respond

Today is Tuesday and we are still here.  Today we are hoping to hear back from Dr. Patel after he talks to our Dr in Houston.  Our prayer and hope is that there is some new trial out there.  Yep, we are still that optimistic.  Hard to believe.

In the mean time we are trying to stay busy.  Sunday we had a horrific wind storm that kept us inside.  That was not a good scenerio for Jeff.  He needs to be busy not sitting still and letting his mind think too much.  Anxiety ruled again but we got through it. 

Jeff is great at reacting quickly to a situation.  He has great instincts and can make decisions quickly.  On the other hand, I don't have that ability.  I tend to be more of a responder.  I like to take a while and think things over before I can make a decsion.  But together we are a great team.  We know we will have some tedious, important decsions to make in our future.  Things we don't want to do but we will have to.  Jeff's greatest concern is me and the kids.  He has always been a great provider for his family and he is making sure that will always be the case.  I love him so much!  He is so dependable and loyal.  My rock.

My sister, Katie and I talked for a long time this morning.  She reminded me about our saying," If it's hard, than you're doing it right." Thanks for the reminder.  She also added that the important things in life are "hard and usually suck" and "God thinks it's ok for me to be mad and say bad words".  Yes, I think that is all true.  Doing the right thing is usually the hardest choice and sometimes it really sucks.  Agreed!  But the end result is always worth it.  Being true to yourself,  giving and receiving true love, living your life with certainty and purpose, making those tough decisions so you have no regrets, being able to say your sorry, being proud of yourself, your family and your accomplishments.  Yes, its worth the hard part.  We actually consider ourselves lucky.  I know that's a crazy statement but it's true.  And when I say lucky, you all know I mean blessed!

We'll let you know if we get word from Dr Patel about Plan B.
Thanks for all the love.  It's keeping us going.  We love you too.

Jeff and Leta
