family relationships

And im not going to lie. This week has been extremely hard, and nothing has really lightened it up.
This is one of those weeks where you really have to rely on God, through prayer, through letters and cards, through friends, through people in your life, that bring you happiness.
Ive been having major health issues this week, that really scare me. I havent been able to breathe well, for a few weeks now, and i cough so hard i get sick, or pass out, but nothing has really been able to help me.
I have multiple doctor appointments, and hopefully that will get me on the right track to getting better.
One thing that has really been heavily laid on my heart this week is relationships. Like your relationship with your Family, and how it is extremely important.
My Grandmother on my Dads side is extremely sick. Hes flying out tomorrow for a few weeks to stay with them, because the Chaplin from the Hospital told my Grandparents to gather family together again. We just got back from Ontario two weeks ago, but this time, only my father is going back.
He's never really had a great relationship with his Father, my Grandfather, which makes the soon reality of my grandmothers death so much harder.
Death for someone who isnt a Christian is difficult, more difficult then if you have faith that God is there, and they are going to a better place.
Relationships with your family are so important, to love and grow and share with them, to accomplish things, live life, family is very important.
My mother doesnt have a good relationship with her family, and its been quite a difficult ride, as we have just been told that my grandmother on my moms side is in the hospital as well, and is doing poorly. Its hard on my mom, because she was never told about this, until getting an email from my aunt about my passport, and it was a side note.
When i found out, i made a decision.
That family is extremely important, and we cannot let them go.
Broken Families are hard to live with, but at the same time, sometimes all you need is the understanding of your love for eachother, to make it through.
