Living in Gratitude

The last two days have been gift. We have been so blessed to have two days where Theone has been quite alert and able to share fun memories of times past, excursions, and adventures. Lots of memories of the cabin, which holds a special place for all of us.

I really have no sense of the timing of all of this. My heart knows it could be any moment; and I seem to vaciliate between welcoming the end to deliver her from her pain and frustration and willing the universe to allow us one more moment.

In the quiet that remains now with only Theone and I (and Cocoa who isn't very noisy) in the house I have much time to contemplate...it is peaceful here, and that is good. It is a blessing to be together and I live in gratitude.
