Home again

A warm fire, lovely paintings and stitchery on the walls, comfy chairs, a garden with birdfeeders and a fountain, a gazebo to sit under and ponder life, loving, caring people all around--doesn't this sound like home? It is home for Lydia for now. She is in the Sanctuary Hospice House in Tupelo. How can such a blessing be possible at a dark time like this? Lydia is comfortable and tended to by angels in this place.

I am at the library right now just looking through what has piled up on my desk this week (not much! the staff handles things so well), and Charlie is by Lydia's side. One or both of us is with her 24 hours a day, and I am headed there now. I am taking her little poodle Xander for a visit. If he behaves, we might let him stay with her all the time!

She is in Room 4 East, and you are welcome to visit. If you want to email us, there is a link under my profile. How can we possibly thank all of you for your prayers and love?

Kay,
Xander can indeed stay there with Lydia, all the time. The kind folks at Sanctuary Hospice House consider him to be part of your family, and if his presence in the room helps Lydia and/or you, then he'll be welcome.
