Family Is Everything

Family is everything. Tonight I sit in a hospital room praying for my father's life. A stroke, the doctors believe, but they are unsure after hours of tests. My father lays unconscious, hooked to a ventilator. My mother and I sit and wait and wonder what the future holds. 

Adultery and divorce and broken hearts. That's all meaningless right now. I just want my dad to be okay. He's an imperfect man but he has been my rock, along with my mom, for the last year and I pray that he pulls through this.
