What do you do when your life turns a page? In March of 2020, we were going about our own business when everything turned upside down. My husband, Bruce was hospitalized in the ICU during the biggest surge of the Covid-19 pandemic. We had no idea at the time, but Bruce was headed for a 30 day, terrifying roller coaster ride. And there was no seat for me on this roller coaster. I was left to stand by and look on from the sidelines.
Bruce’s saga included two brain surgeries, a mysterious infection, uncontrollable seizures, loss of speech and movement on his right side. Oh yes, and a ventilator. It was in the early days of the pandemic and life was basically shut down. I was home alone, unable to even hug my kids. But through it all, our faith sustained us. God is faithful!
We were invited to be guest speakers at an old hangout of mine, the Rochester, Michigan Toastmasters Club. That’s where we met Lydia Gagoh from The Candid Life Podcast. As a result of hearing our story, she invited us to join her for our very first podcast. Click the button below and hear what we did when our life turned a page.
