Hang in There at Christmas
There is nothing like a near death experience to bring life back into focus. Josh Eyre, a surgeon and family man, was having an off year. He had always been a big fan of Christmas but this year he was just not feeling the joy. There was nothing specific that had dampened his Christmas spirit; but this year Christmas was more work than wonder, more labor than love. It was with this cantankerous attitude he started the holiday season, and soon found himself in a precarious situation where even the slightest wrong move could cause serious harm or take his life. Suspended high above the ground on a frosty night, he began to reflect on Christmases from the past that had helped to shape his life. Meet the strange Haight brothers whose home was a favorite snowball target but whose love melted away years of suspicion . Have a run in with the law on a Christmas tree hunt. Laugh with Josh as they have the whole family stay for the first Christmas in their new home. Marvel at the gratitude and humility of a man shot in the heart, and feel the love brought by an angel baby born with only half a heart. Christmas brings with it the extremes of emotion, happiness and heartache, time with family or loneliness, laughter and tears. This story brings with it all of these emotions, and in the end, it will bring the meaning and spirit of Christmas to those that read it.
