I am in Palm Springs visiting my Uncle Dick and Ken this week. It is already sunny, warm, and 70 degrees. Geez!!! I am definately a Colorado girl – the hot this quick in the season….no thank you!
My Uncle Kenny is in a nursing home after numerous strokes, falls, and a Parkinson’s diagnosis. I missed visiting my grandmother before she passed and I was determined not to let that happen again. These are the people who loved and supported me no matter what happened in my life. They are wonderful people, and they are part of me. I am saddened to see my birthday buddy (we were born on the same day….43 years apart) in such a state as where he is at at this time in his life, but a friend shared a perspective with me – it had to do with how our spirits take this time to prepare to enter whatever “afterlife” they are headed to – in other words, they may be unable to communicate with us in this life anymore (which is where my Uncle is at), but they are already communicating with the “other side” and re-charging for the journey. Unique perspective.
Smiles from Cali,
Berta
