The last few weeks have involved lots of emails and phone calls. Yesterday we finally received documents that outline the new proposal from the State of Arizona with the correct terminology that we can agree on. If we agree to this, it will be several weeks until everything is finalized.
When I have explained this to a friend what the state is proposing, she asked “isn’t this what you wanted?” Yes, I will get what I wanted and I’m thankful, but it has conditions that I strongly disagree with. I am finding it hard to wrap my mind around the added time and energy this will put on Bryson’s new family. Also, I’m not sure that Bryson’s health will not be compromised with these “requirements.”
We are close to the battle being over, but the battle has inflicted wounds and scars that will need time to heal.
My mind is weary, my heart is anxious, my body is exhausted.
I’m thankful for God’s unwavering love for me!
I’m thankful for my village of friends who stand in the gap when I don’t have the strength.
My hope and prayer…… when this battle is behind me, I can shift my mind, heart, and body completely into what God has for me next.
The next chapter is coming…….
