“When our souls lie barren in a winter which seems hopeless and endless, God has not abandoned us. His work goes on. He asks our acceptance of the painful process and our trust that He will indeed give resurrection life.” ~Elisabeth Elliot

I've been wandering how your dad's surgery went. I'm so sorry to hear that he's not doing well. I'll continue to pray for his healing and the rest of your family as you watch him go through this. The letters you wrote to him sound so sweet and I'm sure they mean a lot to him.
Joy Kincaid says

Joy,
I am so sorry for your father's continued health problems. I have prayed for you and your entire family along with special prayers for your father's healing. This must be the hardest thing your family has ever had to endure. It sounds very similar to what happened to my father in law.
The quotes you posted are very poignant. You must hold on to them. I will continue to keep your family in my prayers.
