through it

love that saying...you know the one?

if He sees you to it, He'll see you through it

my neighbor had a visit from the hospice doctor yesterday

and he said "i'll see you in 3 months"

wowza!  she has far exceeded the nursing home's prediction!

and HE indeed is seeing her through it

with new friends like her wonderful health aid (top)

and our new friend (holding vintage salt and pepper shakers)

he's an art dealer who has helped me clean and organize {a home whose owner spent a life collecting in hopes of opening an antique store someday}...he cooks for us...brings us fresh flowers from his garden...keeps us laughing with his stories

other heaven-sent friends...cutting grass, bringing dogs and babies for visits, doing laundry, listening...

He sure loves us...each one of us!

so here's to the gift of time...the gift of the breath we just took

the gift of fellow pilgrims to walk with us

through

it

all
