We even heard him whistling the other afternoon - that was such a sweet sound!There aren't words to describe the enormous amount of love we have felt from family, friends, and especially from our Heavenly Father. The blessings that were given to Dad during those first few days were given by worthy priesthood holders. During those blessings, a very warm and peaceful feeling came to me that all would be well, no matter what happened. Blessings were given to myself and to some of our children, and the same sweet feeling of peace prevailed. It was that feeling that we all hung onto, knowing that our Heavenly Father was indeed in charge of the events that took place - from the moment Doug was struck by another jet ski, the surgeries, the days in ICU, and even now as he recovers. We watched as many miracles occurred. I know Heavenly Father has answered our prayers. We have learned many important things from this event, and I have a confirmed testimony of prayer, of faith, of loving friends and families. Thank you so much for all you have done as we have watched this event play out. There were some very special friends that let me lean on them many times. I will never forget this, and am so grateful that my Heavenly Father has allowed my sweet husband to remain here with us. He is our rock, and has remained positive. It was today, 36 years ago, that we knelt across an altar in the Salt Lake temple - how grateful I am that we have kept those covenants and will always be together. Thank you, thank you for your love and support! ~ Susan
