In the lead up to Garrys second anniversary of defying #MNDs final blow and being blessed with a miracle, I find myself sporting a myriad of feelings..... Relief we didnt have to say goodbye just yet, Happiness we have a second chance, Terrified our second chance may only be short, Devastated others have not been blessed like us, Saddened others do not respect life, Grief that some just give up, Anger that options are not presented to others, Frustration we havent been able to alert the media to the plight of young people with MND and those options, a sense of overwhelming Gratitude for the thoughts and actions of everybody who has supported us through this journey, Hope that we can encourage others to #nevergiveup, Excitement that we will soon embark on another stage of our journey, Nervousness about that stage, Exhaustion physically and mentally, Panic about finances etc etc etc...... Maybe not 10 thousand feelings but quiet a few.... Its been a long 2 years ( + the 5 prior to that) and will be another long 6 months, then another 6 months that we will probably want to slow down but after that, well, hopefully..... the longest, happiest, most memorable journey will begin and if anything should happen, so be it. But so far with The Good Lord at the helm, weve made it through rough waters. There will be more for sure, but there will also be crystal clear sailing and maybe a treasure chest or two....
