The Unexpected Holiday

Sometimes life throws the unexpected at you. Our anniversary getaway in a nutshell.

PLEASE HELP - WE HAVE 15 HOURS TO GO TO SAVE OUR HOME AND ARE STILL $500 SHORT.

Dear Littler B,

Instead of writing a letter to you today, I opted to make a video to show you some of the things to look forward to when you become me. What an exciting adventure that March of 2016 will become for you.

Our adventure took place in scenic downtown Nashville, TN otherwise known as Music City, USA.  Watch the video to learn a bit more about this whirlwind of a trip.

Please watch the video and share with everyone you can.   Enjoy and keep up the faith, hope, courage and strength. 





Counting our many blessings,

Bigger Little B

  5. Thank you Tania, we are hoping and praying that he will recover most of his functionality. No clue what at this point will be lasting and what will fade over time. Thank you for the well wishes.

  8. Happy Anniversary! Your love for each other makes every day's challenges conquerable. You've got an enviable hospital out there. I'm not aware of any pet friendly one in my country. I hope we have soon because they are therapeutic. I'll be including your family in my prayers. My dad will be admitted to the hospital next week and will undergo a major operation. How I wish we have a lovely hospital like that.

  9. Robert, Thank you so much for that. He has always to be been the personification of love, hence the return of that love is so very easy. We WILL get through this somehow.

  10. Thank you Roselle, yes the hospital has been amazing. We came in through the St. Thomas' in our town and moved on to their sister hospital on one end of Nashville and then transferred to yet a third of the chain for rehabilitation. One of the biggest things he was missing was our puppy at home so it is such a blessing that they recognize therapy animals. They do make such a very big difference in outlook all around. Healing begins inside with the attitude.

  12. My wife and I are currently on holiday for our 2nd wedding anniversary. This video made me a little sad at first but realizing its true message, I feel happy seeing two people bound by unconditional love for each other. Just like you, I would do the same for a loved one. Kudos also to the hospital for allowing pets. I hope your husband recovers soon.

  15. Thank you Marjorie! I am shocked that people are stunned by Zack the therapy dog. He was amazing! Kathy is an amazing volunteer who brings him around to those who can not leave the hospital. What a difference he makes in their spirits!

  17. Thank you Georgia, We are hoping for as much of a recovery as possible. They say by six months what will heal, will heal and the rest will be learning to live with the new normal. Thank you about the humor compliment. If we can't laugh I don't know how we will get through this.

  22. Thank you so much Swayam! We are actually trying to do this for his therapy as much as mine. He is one who has always done amateure videos and has even won awards for it. This is why we chose this format. Trying to keep faith and keep putting one foot in front of the other.
