Embarrassed

Yesterday, my grandmother told me some interesting news. Let me back up first. Back at Christmas time, my dad's cousin had an anurism (sp). Several veins exploded and such. When he went into surgery, he had had a massive stroke. He was on life support. My grandmother told me that they were going to pull the plug, and basically that would probably be the end. (I say probably because he would have had to defy all odds and breathe on his own.) I didn't hear anything else. I grieved, and prayed for my family. I really liked Larry, so it was a tough one.

Yesterday, my cousin Nelson asked my grandma about her nephew. Apparently, Larry had been a fighter and pulled through. He is still alive, and they told him last week that he would never speak again, etc. On Friday, Larry called my grandma. It is a miracle beyond miracles. The embarrassing part is that I didn't know this whole time. I have talked to my grandmother several times since this has happened, and not a single word was mentioned. I guess it is my bad because I didn't have the heart to ask her because she brings up grandpa, and well that is tough in itself. I am embarrassed that my friends prayed with me, and mourned with me and yet I was wrong. I am embarrassed that my family and I don't talk as much as I thought. I talk to my dad every day, but I guess I am so self-absorbed that I didn't think to mention it. Or life happened, and it never came up. I have no idea what happened. Jeremy was in shock as much as I was, so I am glad I wasn't alone in my lack of knowledge. However, I am totally embarrassed by it all.

To all those who prayed and mourned with me, thank you. I guess when we lifted Larry up in our prayers, the Lord gave him the ability to fight.

Did a Drill Max by Cathe Friedrich tonight! Wow, I didn't finish it because Jeremy and Conner came home from the movies. However, I was getting worked over. We shall see how I feel tomorrow!!
