My Dad
If you follow me on facebook, you know my dad found out he had a tumor in his left lung about a month ago. I say had, becuase his surgery was last Monday and very successful. But a really rough week for him. He had heart problems on Thursday night and was sent from the base hospital to Miami Valley by Care flight ground. He spent about 2 days in the CUICU. I am happy to say, that today Easter Sunday, he is in a regular room. All his tubes from his lung surgery have been removed. No oxygen, which they though he'd come home with. He's on a heart monitor only. Were waiting for him to be released. I have to say, I believe in the power of prayer, I believe in guradian angels and I belive my otherwise healthy dad is one of the strongest people I know.
I had the honor of taking my parents pictures the winter of '97. Everytime I see the 8x10 of my dad sitting on their mantel I am so in awe of how good it is. That photographer did an awesome job. (or the camera takes really good pictures. ;))
If you're still blessed with your parents, drag, drive, pull them to the studio, any studio and have a session of just the two of them. Soon!

so true. many times life gets busy and people think there is more time. then there is nothing the photographer can do when someone gets sick or passes. so true.
I miss my mom a great deal, I am enduring the 6th year since she left us. Just a few weeks after I got married she past away with an out of control staff infection that she obtained during surgery to fix her heart from radiation damage ten years prior. It is especially hard some days, but am so thankful for the 9 years she stayed with us beyond the 8 months they had given her. God is good!
