Today was a special day for our family.
One year ago we got the call that Dad was in the hospital.
One year ago we feared we'd never see the old man again.
One year ago our family's lives changed forever.
Today, June 26th Two Thousand Nineteen, marks one entire trip around the sun being heart attack free for Kevin. One year of tears and joy. One year of challenges and victories. One year of every one of us realizing that family is THE most important thing...and we've grown much stronger because of all of it.
We are so proud of Duke and how far he's come! He's taking advantage of his new lease on life, eating healthy, excercising, and appreciating the little things. An important reminder for all of us.
Yesterday also marked one year cancer free for Kevin's daughter-in-law (Noah's bride) Rachel! She had an incredibly long summer of recovery last year, all the while visiting Kevin as much as she was able. We are so thankful that she's doing so well and keep our fingers crossed that the cancer is gone for good! Congrats on one year Rachel!
Last but not least...we cannot forget one of THE most important people in this shout-out:
Wendy.
She's been through the thick and the thin, the absolutely terrifying, long days, and the days where hope and progress finally shined through. She's been Kevin's rock and has always managed to keep a positive outlook and attitude. Kevin certainly couldn't have progressed as far as he has without her by his side. ♥️
Thank you all for your support and love through this entire ordeal. Hugs from the Briskys!
