The relationship between my wife, Leah, and my dad was never smooth. Despite years of disagreements, when my dad fell into a coma, Leah was unwavering in her support. She accompanied me to the hospital every day, bringing flowers and spending hours by his bedside, talking to him as if he could hear us.
The Support of Family
We weren’t alone in our vigil. My mom, brother Jared, and daughter were there as well, united in our prayers for his recovery. Dad was the cornerstone of our family—the one we all turned to when life felt overwhelming. His absence left a void, and as days turned into weeks, we began to lose hope.
Then, something extraordinary happened.
A Sign of Hope
One day, he squeezed my mom’s hand. It was a small gesture but a monumental sign of life. Slowly, my dad began his journey toward recovery.
