Your story is touching. I am again struck that the most important things in life are relationships. Nothing brings that into focus more than the realization that we are not guaranteed life. Keep on writing, Nola!

Yes, Kristy, so true! Thanks for pointing that out. Sometimes it's too easy for me to get caught up in things instead of people. Thanks for the encouragement to write. ☺️

I'm glad it did, Karla. And thank you for the comment.

It's always amazing how much we have to give when others have given to us. I long to be a person who pours into the lives of others. 💖

I will never forget them. Nor will I forget how beautiful it was that God orchestrated our timing and placement in the unit.

Thank you. This story will be tucked into my heart forever. I almost ache with the need to know her surgery went well. 💖
