As you may know, the past couple months have been very challenging for my family. My Dad was in critical care in the ICU and the doctors were not too positive on the outcome of his condition. I am thrilled to share that he is doing great- a couple minor set backs but he is alive and well, and now lives in Tampa Bay. During all of this, I had many nights of reflective thought, prayer, and questions. My dad and I have not always been as close as...
