Trust

I’ve updated floydville. here’s an excerpt:

In the last six days, my life has transformed in ways I have yet to fully grasp. I am grateful to a world of people who’ve played various roles in this event. First and foremost, Izaak’s gift and act of personal sacrifice goes beyond my ability to fully express adequate appreciation. All I can say is “Thank you for laying down your life for mine.”

As always, my secret weapon in life is my wife Kelly. She stays in the background, taking care of me and host of other issues that allow me to simply be. She is a gift I never deserved but received and I am thankful. Then I think of the family and friends who surrounded Izaak and myself with various forms of support from Jeremy’s popular and continuous kidneyblogging to the ongoing presence of my parents, Kelly’s parents and Izaak’s parents. We were touched by so many friends it would be difficult to single some out for fear I might forget others, but I hold the steady encouragement of friends in my heart as a gift from heaven.

I could continue by mentioning the thousands of people who have been praying for days, weeks, months and even years. The medical staff who tirelessly worked to make sure both of us received the care we needed for complete recovery. And there are countless other people who contributed in ways we will never fully realize. I know you’re there and I am thankful.
