Q: The best part of today was...
A: Today we hosted a celebration at my home. One year ago, my brother-in-law was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis. It was very serious; to the point that his doctors did not expect him to live through the first night. There were many unexplainable and miraculous coincidences--God moments, I like to think--throughout his care and eventual recovery. Over and over his doctors were surprised at the speed and degree of recovery. Many patients with this type of infection die. Those who do not survive as a shell of their former selves; dealing with blindness, deafness, and severe brain damage. In my brother-in-law's case he has had to deal with none of the above. He is himself.
Today we celebrated the healing and recovery that have occurred from that terrifying night last year. We thanked the creator of the universe for his mercy and celebrated the network of people who supported my brother-in-law and his family throughout those months.
