Truth is……It’s harder than I make it sound in these posts.

Published October 3, 2012 by lyrisamil

When I write these posts, I try to make it informational, and as up beat and positive as I can. The reality is this, our lives have been turned upside down and inside out. Our lives have been forever changed.

Lyris is doing exceptionally well in her progression. We couldn’t be happier and more proud of her. Her parents on the other hand are having some struggles and difficulties.

This emotional roller coaster is not a ride I would recommend. As soon as we think it’s about to come to a stop….here comes another steep, scary drop.

What do you do when your home is now the hospital? What do you do when you can barely work and the income you ARE bringing in goes to gas and eating out at the hospital? What do you do when your 2-year-old says ” I want to go home” because he’s tired of being in the hospital? What do you do when you get behind on your rent/utilities? What do you do when you can’t stop crying? What do you do when your car breaks down? What do you do when people keep staring and pointing at your child as though she has two heads? What do you do when you’re the one who has to keep it all together?

Truth is…this is our reality right now and this is how we’re doing.

  • God can do anything but fail! I know the difficulties but this is the time to give it ALL to God. Trust Him!!! When you feel like you can’t bare anymore – trust Him and give praise. I love you guys and you are always in my prayers!

  • Lorinda, I don’t know how you do it. I don’t know how Lyris does it. Even though we’re cousins, we’ve never met personally, but just know that there are people praying for you and the family; people supporting you from afar. You’ve got superwoman strength and then some! God is holding you up! Love you

  • Anything me and Rod can do just let us know. Even if its taking JD for a day, whatever. Let me know. WE love you and are still praying. GOD IS ABLE.
