Hope

Yesterday, I visited several patients and heard behind their words how much they missed life before cancer.  We all have moments in our lives when we miss someone or something.  My daughter who lives in Tennessee is like a stranger in my life.  Most days, weeks, I do okay, but there are moments when I miss her terribly.  One morning last week, I had one of those moments standing by the water’s edge with tears streaming down my face and feeling as upside down as the tree reflections.  During these moments time becomes distorted by ripples of past moments shared with her, reflections; I try so hard to catch, but in an instant “hope changes everything” as I feel her presence.  Let hope rule!
