Send us Fan MailAs our hearts spill over with the raw emotions of anticipation and longing, we gather around the mic, holding close the story of our daughter Faith's arduous medical odyssey. Navigating her 51st surgery, we're candid about the toll it's taken on us all, while still finding solace in the support of her incredible medical team and the strength of our family bond. Your prayers and thoughts mean the world to us, and as we share this chapter of our lives, we invite you to draw near and become part of our extended family through the power of empathy and connection.Transitioning from the hospital corridors to the familiar trails of our kennel, the conversation shifts to the heartache and resilience found in the difficult decision to scale down operations. As we reflect on Faith's cherished interactions with the dogs and the complexities of parenting under such extraordinary circumstances, our story becomes a mosaic of loss, love, and the kind of bravery that only a shared struggle can reveal. We open the floor to you, our listeners, to intertwine your stories with ours, celebrating the collective spirit that uplifts us all in the face of adversity.Ending on a lighter note, we navigate the playful chaos of our household's hierarchy, teasing out the humor in our daily dance of family roles and responsibilities. With each quip and jest about who holds the title of CEO at home, we weave a tapestry of laughter that holds us together amidst the toughest of times. There's a warmth in the banter, a reminder that life, even when it throws curveballs, is a shared journey best walked with humor and heart.Support the show
