An Unexpected Revisit

to the hospital waiting room Theater of the Mind.

In a recent random conversation with a friend, she began describing someone, and I knew right away who it was. Remember the loving husband of a woman in dementia who entertained an entire waiting room for an hour? I wrote about them a few months ago.

He lives in the same assisted living facility as my friend.

His vivacious wife has passed on. No doubt she is entertaining crowds who wait …

… for their beloved mates to join them in glory.

It was a complete surprise, and I thought you might like to know.

We must number our days.

If you are based in the U.S., I hope you had a meaningful Thanksgiving holiday, and if not, I hope you frequently find yourself grateful.

May your coming Christmas season be full of light!

Blessings!

Jana

Or — d. None of the above, but promise me to at least think about investing in yourself and doing what you love. Life is too short.

With love,
