Oh God. I just read Megan's first Tanner story to Hubby. We read it so differently now. To think that the liver cancer had already spread to Tanner's lungs and he still MADE IT, is just amazing!!
She doesn't mention here that he had a liver transplant. We are so grateful for that gift.
We are hoping good things for little Ally. Her cancer hasn't spread to marrow or liver. Now we hope the chemo is something she can endure successfully and that the tumor shrinks enough this week to give her aorta necessary space.
May the Presence of the God of Love rest gently upon, enfold and infuse all in pain and peril and need this night. ♥
And thanks SO MUCH for the comfort of Julian, who also went through a passage perilous.
Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars

I looked at the sky picture and saw LIGHT.
Hubby looked at it and said,
"It has a heart!"
Nice.
Smart man you married, listener. . . .

Troo dat, puddle, troo dat.
After all, he picked me.
