Nana

Today, my Nana should be turning 78.

But one week ago today she passed away.

In a hospital room surrounded by loved ones.

Because her sweet, little body was not strong enough to fight the infection that crept in through a wound that wouldn't heal.

It was too soon.

And it still doesn't feel real.

And I'm still not sure I've caught my breath.

Hey my friend,

Just wanted you to know we love you and have been praying for you and your family.

I have had problems posting on any blogs lately....but have read them.

Oh sweet friend....I am so sorry. I know the relationship you had with her was not to be compared.

Her body is strong now...

And when you see her again....I'm sure you will once again have to catch your breath.

Heaven is close. Just a breath away.
