Goin' for a visit...


....to see these two lovely folks this weekend. I'm surprised that they are not tired of me yet; of course, they may be and are just too nice to tell me to shoo!

Sweet Jo is still hanging in there and Mr. Jim is right there with her.

I am sometimes at a loss for words when i visit Ms. Jo and Mr. Jim. Words just don't seem to come easily some times as i want to offer comfort and a smile and i am at a loss. Those of you that know me, know how rare it is for me to be at a loss for words....maybe sometimes, words don't need to be spoken and just being there is enough. Either way, i'm grateful that i'm being given the chance to be with them during all of this....

I keep reminding myself that Ms. Jo is headed to a better place, where she won't be sick or in pain. I'm sad, though, for her family and for her many friends that love her. I know that they don't want to see her suffer, but i know that it's tough to let go of someone that you love so very much. I guess that i need to remember that we are all here on loan from God and one day, we'll all be together again.

sigh...life is hard sometimes, isn't it?
