Hi!!!
What a feeling to be “home” again, to be together with the kids. They are taking such good care of us at the hotel. We’ve got the suite, so we have a living room together; you understand that we have a lot to work through together.
Please pray for emotional healing for us, all the kids, grandchildren and all the foster kids who have lived with us for many years. Pray extra for the 5 teenagers who were in the fire.
Our kids have recorded a CD which is playing in Håkan’s hospital room, and tomorrow some of our kids will travel up to Linköping with Håkan’s sister. I have to wait until my wounds have healed.
I’ve been to the hospital and been “wrapped” and re-bandaged. Today the nurse was one of our church members – nice. I’ll go there every day. It’s good to see how nicely the wounds are healing day by day. Our “…wounds will be quickly healed…” (Is. 58:8)
Once again, THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND AGAIN, THANK YOU…
I have never in my life experienced so much love and caring from so many people at the same time. LOVE SQUARED. Thanks for all gifts…
The first night, I lay and thought, ”What can I sell?” Then I realized we didn’t have so much left…yes, the car…I can’t just sell Håkan’s car… Thank God, we still have it. We’ll just store it.
Now we’re starting from scratch. I own 2 pair of sweatpants, 1 pair of shoes, 2 sweaters, some t-shirts – all are gifts…from you. Thank you.
In the middle of all this, our foster son turned 19 today, so we celebrated his birthday. It has never been so easy to buy presents for someone, because he needs everything! Tomorrow Fristaden is arranging a little party for Daniel…what love, to our whole family.
Today Håkan’s brother and his wife been here, and we ate together at Johanna and Daniel’s – food which one of you has made…Thanks.
My sister Anneli and her family came today. We were in the house and we went through the whole series of events together and cried together… We rejoiced once again over the fact that everyone had got out of the house. We finished with dinner at my brother Dan and his wife’s house.
The whole second floor and the attic are completely burned, but the insurance company will rebuild it, while the first floor and the cellar need to be cleaned from all the soot.
Love you!!
God bless you!!

Hej Gunilla ! Underbart att se dig igen nu på mötet och efter!! Ta tiden på dig att bearbeta och vila och vara inför Herren så mycket du kan!! Det tar tid och det är viktigt att ta den tid som behövs för att läka och så får du komma tillbaka med full styrka när det är dags!! Jag ber för dig och Håkan och ungdomarna !!

hej Gunilla !
ReplyDeleteUnderbart att träffa dig i kyrkan . Mitt i denna hemska situation som gör att man gråter både nu och då och som man inte riktigt fattar än - man tror ju att Håkan skall komma in på möte en söndag rätt som det är . Mitt i denna chock och bearbetningsfas kommer du in och är så där fruktansvärt ärlig och har på köpet humor . Det där med sömntabletten och bloggen var helt otroligt roligt . Tänk att Håkan rörde på tårna under sången - jag har tänkt på det flera gånger idag .
Kram

Du fick mig att gå på en bloggen för första gången i mitt liv . Vad gör man inte för att glädja sin vän .
