Everyday Coma

Today would have been the 127th day in a row that Robert visited his wife at the hospital as she rested in a coma. But last night Robert had a dream that she died, and he woke up in tears this morning and he couldn’t bring himself to drive to the hospital to see her lying there like that. So he stayed in bed, staring at the ceiling, and thinking of how he was going to have to learn to live without her for the rest of his life. And then my phone rang, and it was her.

Hope…it’s the belief that things will get better and that right around the corner there’s something to hold unto so we can move forward.  Despair believes that you’re forever stuck and things will never get better.  Sometimes we put our “hope” in a box and close it up for fear of being disappointed.  Never lose hope. You can actually know that no matter what is happening, God IS with you and in Him there is always hope…everyday.
