MONDAY MUSINGS: Peace comes in all forms. Today's musing wasn't what I was planning on, but it is what it is. I received a call this weekend from a childhood friend who has been struggling with her health for a myriad of reasons. Her cancers morphed and no matter how they tried to label her health and treat symptoms, success was elusive.
Unbeknownst to me, she had been in the hospital since earlier in the week receiving transfusions. The goal was to raise her blood cell count, but the transfusions couldn't do enough...
For most of her illnesses, she has kept her setbacks to herself but this call was different. It was to let me know that she would be returning home, and would be on hospice, sleeping a lot. I was to let others know. Perhaps friends would like to come sit with her even if she would probably be asleep most of their visit...
I am truly thankful to have received her call and most of all, to know she has chosen this path of peace...
Friends forever...
