Brutal Honesty

If nothing else this blog is about brutal honesty. We are in the middle of a family crisis: a mother with Alzheimer's, a father with uncontainable rage who wants nothing to do with reality, and three kids who have shown an incredibly strong ability to pull together and stand in their strengths.

I have learned that sharing vulnerability usually tends to knit people to a common understanding, purpose, and mutual respect....so I am sharing our vulnerability.

I have learned a lot these past couple of days...more than I can mention now. But pride forefronts all emotions: Jeff and his sisters, yoked with the strength and mercy of the Lord, are a force to be reckoned with!
