Journal entry by jean barreiro —
We hope your Holidays were filled with joy and wonderful times.
What a year to reflect upon! As we look back on 2021 we are so incredibly grateful for all the blessings and miracles God bestowed on our family. The saying, “He will not give more than you can handle” has never felt so real for us.
This week marks just 6 weeks since Michaels open heart surgery. His doctors have released him for most activities and he’s now back home at his place!!!
The journey has been so long and at times beyond trying but God NEVER gave him or us more than we could handle. His recovery has been nothing short of amazing without any major complications.
He will move forward able to lead a normal life with very few restrictions with NO real maintenance protocol and NO prescription drug regimen!
We consider the work that Dr Dewan was able to do on Michael an absolute miracle and will never be able to thank him or his team for the life they were able to give our son.
It’s hard to put into words the gratitude, hope, and peace that we feel for our son. This entire experience has put life into perspective in ways that are equally hard to describe.
As we move forward, knowing our sons health is in the best place it’s ever been our family is mindful of our blessings. We are so grateful for all the prayers that were offered up in his name. Thank you all, for your calls, your messages, for the concern you showed and the well wishes and the encouragement you provided for us and for Michael. Our gratitude to everyone is also hard to put into words… please know how thankful we are.
May this coming year bring you abundant joy, happiness and health. Happy New Year from the Barreiro Family!
