He remembered about the floods on the news so he knew what it was and he said, "We have to pray for these people."<br /><br />Very moving post too, Gail.

She isn't ready, but it is comforting to think that at some point amazing things are awaiting, isn't it?<br /><br />I feel you are very heroic in your upbeat nature as you fight to stay mobile and overcome the pain of your disease. I'm sorry you have to deal with so much. I believe everything is part of God's plan, but it is a lot harder to see how some things fit in to any kind of plan, isn't it?

I have had flare-ups before - the last one was last May, and before that August of 2006, which was significant. I am managing as best I can to be present in my blessings while living with the pain. A very delicate balance. Today, the humidity is lifting so I can get out on our deck with Gracey - always a refreshing and inspiring venture.
