When will we be back to normal?

Daddy underwent coronary bypass two weeks ago. It was an emergency procedure and no one in our family was prepared. We were not prepared mentally, emotionally, and financially. The finance side was taken cared of. I thought the mental and emotional side will be over as soon as we know his life is out of danger.

I thought wrong. He's still quiet but not his usual. The tv's tuned in to NBA but it seems he is not watching. No more witty remarks. No more masungit-looking face. All I see is a sad person not knowing when to get over his sadness. I miss daddy.

And then there's mommy. She feeds him and takes care of his needs. She accompanies him for his morning walks - daddy on her right and a portable chair always ready on the other in case daddy gets tired. And still manages to attend to our needs on the side. I'm proud of mommy.

I am very thankful to the Lord for having such wonderful parents. I am praying that things will be better soon. I know it will. I just have to be patient.
