One year ago.

On this day last year, my mom collapsed due to a massive aneurysm and subsequent intracranial hemorrhage. At the time, we all thought that we'd be saying goodbye to her before Christmas arrived. We didn't say goodbye, but we prayed a lot. Other people prayed a lot too. We appreciated that. We also appreciated all the people who helped our family - and especially my dad - cope with the blasted reality of it all. Frankly, my dad's faith and strength has been amazing. Twelve months ago, we tried not to get ahead of ourselves and begin wondering what would happen next. But time marches stubbornly on, and what happened next was the realization that it's one year later and my mom is still with us. And she's still getting better - not the same, but better. That goes for December 16th as well - not the same, but better.
