Life, Light and Love Beyond Covid

"Life, Light and Love Beyond Covid," is the story of Kelly's struggle for her very life; as told by her husband Tim. Kelly would struggle first against Covid, then against a debilitating stroke, and finally move forward into a challenging recovery. It's the story of a dedicated hospital staff, the turmoil of family and friends, and the depiction of how a wife's love, and God's grace, can rescue a man adrift.
She was vibrant and carefree just days prior; but mid-morning of October 3, 2021 found my wife of 39 years on full life support. I watched as the machine breathed for her. I was soon asked to add "Do Not Resuscitate," to Kelly's orders. We reluctantly decided to add those distressing words. This could not be happening. In a nightmare from which I could not awake cold sweat gushed, hope faded, and darkness grew.
Kelly would spend 17 days on full ventilation, 43 days in Intensive Care, and a record 80 total days hospitalized. She would enduring life threatening complications, and be near death several times.
Could God perform the miracles necessary to sustain Kelly's life? I pray that you are intrigued enough to read the true story of her courage. As the journey unfolds we will perceive God's love in the lessons the journey imparts.
No matter how dreadful the situation, in our most desperate moments we learn that we can speak to the living God, and He will answer. May you receive hope as you read and discover how God can grant us: "Hope for miracles always."
