I got better today

YHC didn’t want to be here today. Not sure YHC wanted to be anywhere. But YHC knew where to be, why to be there, and only through the very Grace of God could YHC signed up to Q six months ago and it fall on a day where posting was probably the best thing that could be done. But more on that shortly…

I am dropping the YHC thing for this. My family and I spent Monday at MUSC with my 7 year old daughter Quin. She has been having issues with her eyesight for over a year now and we just have not been able to get an answer as to why. Well, my little girl has a genetic issue with her eyes and it cannot be repaired. This is something that the doctors believe may has run its course and will still allow her to live a full life and maintain freedom of movement, but man it still hurts. As a dad, you go through a lot when your kids are going through stuff. It is something hard to describe, as she really will never know the difference of what normal eyesight would have been. I guess I hurt for her because I know it will plague her for rest of her life. But there is a blessing in all of this too, as it could have been far worse and we are grateful it was not. Unfortunately, we have all seen that play out too. We do ask for prayers for her that it is the end of her loss of vision and things just stabilize from here out.

Now for the moleskin part. I signed up on the Q sheet probably 6 months ago for this Tuesday. We got in to see a specialist when there was a very long waiting list. I don’t think it was coincidence. I was tired when we got home yesterday, and could not really even think about posting, but that I knew that is exactly where I needed to be. If I wasn’t the Q, probably would not have posted. It was not an inspired Q, but as we went along I kinda regained my strength. All I can worry about is today. So I shed a few tears I didn’t know I was going to shed this morning, but I have seen first hand why we need to lean on each other, and this morning it was my turn to lean and I was grateful my F3 brothers were there to lean on. This morning I got better.
