I am back.....and I am so grateful

After my mom and father-in-law passed away Sept. 2020 (old age) and October 2020 (Alzheimer's), respectively, I have returned. The pandemic and their deaths was a very challenging time. My health fell apart. My 2 younger brothers (co-executors) were terrible. They couldn't talk to each other, which left me as a shadow executor. Being the eldest and only female sibling alive, I didn't think I would make it. Worse, stressful situation I have ever been in.

But God carried me through it all. Thank goodness he gave me a garden to work im during the entire time and even now; after much physical, occupational and pelvic floor therapy.

I am so thankful for God, and the people he put in mt life. I am thankful for my husband and sons. I am thankful for my pastor and book club. I have been given the opportunity to start a support group through my church for those with chronic illness, disability and aging issues. I hope this group is beneficial to those that attend.

I am humbly thankful! And I thank you for supporting, encouraging, loving, caring about me along with so many other folks.

THANK YOU.
