So today I have been thinking about writing a post. I just didn't know what I wanted to write about, so I have been racking my mind. It finally came to me after sitting in my chair and looking at the blank screen. I wanted to write about help. Being injured has made more grateful for the help of friends and family. So many concessions have been made for me because I needed help. I have four kids and a wife, one income and a fractured right foot that keeps me from being as active as I would like to be. Hearing other people tell me their experiences. Its sounds like I will never be like I was before the injury. This is concerning for me just because I was working two jobs, seven days a week, to support my family. It was a great opportunity for me to provide the necessities and even more for my growing family. Since the injury, I have had to learn to be dependant on others, which was a huge change for me. Having to get help at the grocery store, getting into my house is a struggle sometimes and even wanting to carry my youngest daughter is a task. I never realized how important these things were for me and how much they glare more now that I can't always do them. My friends and family have been incredible in support and helping me progress through this process. Now that my surgery looms closer, I will need them more than ever. I feel terrible because sometimes I feel like a burden and I hate feeling that way. I pray for a quick healing process and ask the Lord above to give the strength to deal with this injury. I know everybody has their own lives to deal with and I totally understand this, which is why I appreciate things, even more, when people can help. I know I can only do so much with this limited capacity and knowing that I should have done more to prepare for something like this before my injury eats me up inside. I know that God does things for a reason and this part of his grand plan for me, I just wish I knew where the path is leading. I don't question his rational because he has provided everything me family and I have needed but I guess I am just frustrated with my uncertain future. I don't know what capacity I will be able to operate after the surgery and how things will turn out with my job once I return. I have already been off work for two months and don't know how much more time I will be off after the operation. I guess the think I miss most the ability to be independent. As long as I remember, I have been able to drive myself from point A to point B without as much as an after thought, but now it is burdensome to have to ask someone to take me somewhere. I know I am going to pray even harder and ask for patience to be able to navigate through this injury. I just want to thank everyone who has helped me with anything and everything from helping me with a ride to a doctors appointment, taking me to the grocery store, opening the door, giving me advice and words of encouragement. Every single bit has been an answered prayer and I am blessed more than I could have ever imagined being. All I can tell all of you is Thank you from the bottom of my heart and until next time, this was .......just a thought.
This is my space to drop my ideas, thoughts, hopes, dreams, and just downright zaniness with all of you who are willing to take the time to read my mind dump.
