Day 210

Yesterday was Day 210 of us being in the desert.

Yesterday was Day 30 to hear back from the State about Bryson’s appeal.

Yesterday at 3:50 MST (1 hour and 10 minutes before the state’s deadline) I received an email.

YOUR APPEAL HAS BEEN DENIED

The grief, anger, frustration and disbelief were overwhelming.

The weeping, the deep groaning of sorrow and anger spelled out of my soul as I talked to Brad on the phone. 

I called the head of the agency I am working with; she is a DR and experienced in the disabilities field was appalled. She said we have options.

I told her I was done, she said “Lisa but you can’t let them win” I told her I was tired.

Thankfully my dear friend Lynette showed up. We debriefed, we processed, we even laughed. 

Thankfully my SIL Bev and nephew Jake arrived from Manitoba last night. Tucker and Kaden will arrive tomorrow.

I slept ok, I woke up with a severe headache. I’m so fragile and overwhelmed.  But I feel His presence.

I will rest and Brad and I will go over our options, we will lawyer up, we will fight!

Shock is still lingering, but I will press on to run the race that God has marked out for me even if I am out of shape and exhausted.

Thanks friends and warriors.
