Today was a bit sad. Emily has a job commitment and had to move on. We are really going to miss having her here with us. She fit into our family quite nicely. She was always ready to share her crossword puzzle, watch a movie, listen to music or just sit around and read. She and Sarah even managed to visit several museums ... like one should do on a proper holiday. She's pretty good on the piano, too.
It wasn't all fun and games for her though. She was here to help and that she did. She was willing to take on any task at any time. She and Sarah ran the errands, cooked, cleaned, nurtured, sympathized, etc. We will miss her.
Thank you Emily!

ReplyDeleteHope this day finds you feeling even better than previous days.
Emily, another person to be thankful for in that part of the world!
Love and prayers,

I am so grateful you posted this blog. First and foremost it gives the reader information on your progress and that is a great gift to those of us in the USA. Beyond that is so wonderful to hear these stories of the people of NZ and their great kindness and compassion. In a world filled with negative news, most of the time, these are stories that lift your heart.
ReplyDeleteBen, Drew and I wish you the best each and every day and we hope that each day looks brighter and more promising than the last. Lots of love to all.

You all have so many angels coming and going as they do their work to heal you. Emily sounds like she was a very special one. Others will be coming your way to help you find your way home quickly, too.
ReplyDeleteKeep resting - heal - do whatever you can to regain strength. We're all sending positive healing energy and so very much love.
Picture those ruby slippers and remember . . . there's no place like home - there's no place like home . . .
Much love,
