"My son, Jett, had a slight setback last week-end but now is better than ever. A sonogram last Monday shows a strong pulse in his left foot and toes. What a blessing!
Carol Blackburn told me a while back that the agony of grief would not last forever and that one day I would experience an ah-ha moment . . . . . . I believe it came last week and I've definitely turned a corner in life. The horrible black cloud has lifted and there is light once again. I'm still telling Karl how much I love him several times a day and am thanking him over and over again for all he has given to me. Somehow I sense his essence is still with me. He's sure not replying to me but it just feels right and good. Last Friday night, a week ago, I was sitting in Karl's chair and getting very sleepy. I heard him say, in his kind and caring voice to me " Honey, you're falling asleep now . . . . you need to wake up and go to bed". Well, apparently, I was asleep and dreaming because when I opened my eyes and looked up to see him he wasn't there. It doesn't matter to me if I dreamed his presence and voice or he was really there. I felt such love and tenderness and hold it dear to my heart.

Dear Nora, what a touching post. I am glad Jett is doing better and happy you are "enjoying" your memories of Karl and letting them help you grow. We are never too old to grow. I know I myself am still growing in many ways at age 59. Wishing you much peace this Christmas and the love of family and friends to share it with.
What a beautiful story. I've no doubt he was speaking to you. Hold your memories dear and enjoy your Christmas with with friends and family. There are still many blessings to celebrate.
So glad to hear your son is doing better. Great news!
Happy to hear that you are feeling a bit better too. Sweet story about Karl. Hope things continue to better and better.
Beautiful painting!
