In 2005, David passed away. I had been his caregiver during the last two years of his life. During this time, He fought cancer and diabetes. In February of 2005 the battle we, his family, fought with him, ended. It took all of us to get through the hurt and pain of those intense days.
The picture was taken at his 60th birthday party. I am not sure what he was telling Kamri, but she was intently listening. This was a very good evening for our family. He had friends and family who were there to celebrate his life.
Memorial Day focuses on our military, and the lives who gave themselves for our freedom. There are times I felt like I was suffering from Post Traumatic Stress. Looking at this picture triggers some of the challenges and emotions of those events. When you say a prayer tomorrow for our soldiers, include those caregivers who fight for the lives of those they love.
I remember.
