"Alive & Here"

 The ride home was smooth. The new wheelchair ramp nicely negotiated the 10 inch rise from the pavement to our front door walkway. It made it so much easier to get from the car to the inside of the house.

Before unpacking, we worked on our tans on the balcony! We could feel our bodies' Vitamin D manufacturing "factories" grinding it back up after months of sunless shutdown.

Daniel, the young son of a dear friend, came over and helped us unpack and declutter the living space.  He is an amazing young man, a devout believer, active in the church, always positive with a divine glow!  The respect he has for others is an inspiration.  When I whined to him for having been in hospitals for five months, he, with a deeply thankful tone immediately said, "She's alive & she's here".  That's all I needed to hear! So the rest of the day was blissful. Rie, Mia, my brother Foad, and I, ate and cleaned and chatted and lived.  I repeatedly thanked the Lord for Rie being "Alive" and "Here". ❤️🙏

  1. Love this so much❣️I’m reminded of the comment Rie made last week while FaceTiming with her, “I don’t think we praise enough.” Praise is our weapon. Thanking God for each of you, for all he’s done to restore Rie—and all he’s yet to do! ❤️🙏

  2. This is amazing news! I'm so happy for all of you to be together! I tried leaving a tribute on the birthday video sorry I was a little nervous! I've never had the pleasure to actually meet Rie but have heard many great things about her from the office manager at Dr. Askari's office! I'm so amazed by the will power Rie has and that God has restored her! He works in mysterious ways but never seems to leave out great blessings! I hope you have a wonderful birthday Rie and many more to come! Thanks so much for sharing this journey with all of us and please let us know if there's anything we can do for yall!
