' it goes on '


'In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life:  it goes on'   
Robert Frost

 

Five months - with trips to 4 hospitals - different patients/family members and outcomes - some were good, some were so-so - and one flat broke my heart.


My last birthday gift from her -- a piece she treasured for over 30 years and now it's mine -- so like her to give me something she loved.  I see it first thing every morning and the last thing at night -- funny how just the sight of it can ease the hurt.  

Even now, she's guiding me thru the hard part of learning that life does go on.
