As many of you know, I was excitedly looking forward to a photography workshop this week given by the awesome Amy Wenzel. While we were at the workshop mixer Sunday night, Amy received some very life-altering news. Her husband, David, was traveling in San Francisco. He was goofing around and fell and injured his head. He thought he’d suffered a slight concussion, but the next day he had a seizure and was admitted to the hospital. While there and doing the scans related to his head injury, they found a brain tumor. You can read all about it here. They said if he hadn’t fallen, he probably wouldn’t have found the tumor for several years and at that point, it might have been too late. Amy, of course, immediately canceled the workshop and flew to California to be with her husband. It sounds like they will be traveling to Minnesota so that David can have brain surgery at the Mayo Clinic. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
I had planned on posting several sneak peeks while I was there basking in the aloneness of my hotel room (read no little girls saying “mommy” every two seconds). Instead, I spent yesterday with the other workshop attendees figuring out our options and then, driving home. My wonderful in-laws are keeping the girls as planned, so I have two glorious days to catch up and will be posting later today.
Hug your loved ones extra tight today, you never know when life will turn your world upside down.
