Happy second heart Birthday!

Today my dad turns 2! Today marks the second anniversary of my dad's life saving heart transplant. Today marks another year I am grateful my dad is still around and better than ever.

It still feels like yesterday when Annie and I received an early morning wake up call that my dad was on his way to UCLA to receive his new heart. I can still remember clearly my dad being wheeled down the hallway after we said our goodbyes. I can remember the countless prayers Annie and I said in the waiting room. I can recall the gift from God and Our Lady of Mount Carmel when the doctor came out and said everything went just fine.

So many countless memories I still have and many more to look forward to. One being this December, the day I see my dad hold my child in his arms.

Happy Birthday Dad. We love you!
