Today the crown is heavy. It’s a crown adorned with a level of pain yet strength that goes beyond words. It’s a crown I’ve had to wear for a year. I’ve worn it silently and with a heavy heart but today I have to take this crown off and be vulnerable. There was no prepping for this journey. As a woman who has always made lists and checked them five times over there was no plan for this part of my life. It’s tough. It’s bitter. It’s a hard pill to swallow.
But when I woke up to the texts from friends and family literally from across the globe I realized I still have a kingdom of support that have helped carry the crown when I just can’t. And that’s when I know my Dad left me in good hands.
So as I continue to hold my head up and persevere through this journey I want to thank each and every one of you that have called, messaged or texted today. I thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. It truly means the world to me.
I miss you Dad and love you. Keep checking on me from time to time. I’m holding it down. And yes, I did finally get a Lions jersey…with socks too 😉. Love your favorite -and only daughter.
