Looking for the Good in 2013


I so much remember as 2012 crept into our lives that my hubby confronted it with a sense of zeal and optimism that usually isn’t quite as readily apparent in his personality. Bob was convinced that 2012 would be a good year for us with important positive changes in our health and diagnosis.

He was accurate in the prediction that 2012 would bring us lots of news affecting both of us in the health department. Obviously, the biggie for us was Bob’s summer diagnosis of Lewy Bodies Dementia. We had our moments of “Now what in the heck are we going to do?” and even “What in the world is God doing to us? This is nuts!”

Now, I for one have never been one to confront God or state my displeasure to Him. Those emotions had never been allowed to show to the Almighty. Bob always has felt more comfortable telling God what it is like. He even felt comfortable yelling at God about various cruddy happenings.

Bob and I are to a new level as we combat Lewy with all of our gumption. It’s vital to get information out in the vain hopes to bring money for research so we can squash this horrid disease.  This blog is just one way we have attempted to spread this news.

Our perspective on Lewy and even on life (Boy, this suddenly has a more serious tone to it) has swayed. We are trying to make the most of our days and search until we find the best in it. Bob and I will fight things together and celebrate our lives holding hands. We have many blessings, not at all limited to our family and friends.

We will start 2013 with even more of a renewed sense of security. God has blessed us. It is our responsibility to find the good in each day – not really a difficult task. May your outlook also be through those rose tinted lenses. Thanks for being part of our lives.  Life is good.

God Uses this Blog to Show that Life is Good
       Take time to look out and see all that is good!
