The fellowship given.
I went to the ward on a sunday.soon to be joined by Anne.She needed cheering.I had a hysterectomy in 1996 so was able to be supportive.We bonded and in one area of my life she had answers.Both being boomers we had shared history.We talked and believe me when I admit I enjoyed my tiime with her.Come Monday we both had operations and again were there for each other.Tuesday we were joined by an older lady Joy.She had been in the ward before and was dying.I admit to wondering if the bond Anne and I had would go..not to be.Joy had answers I had waited for all my life.Our pain was well controlled and actually we may have been a bit "high" we were solemn and we were hysterical.For five days we were a bonded non family.I have long waited to see an aura..one night in the ward I saw Joy's aura as she lay diagonaly and I will never forget this.Joy had a song she kept trying to remember the words too.My Susan google it and by tea time we sang this Eurovison song from the 1960's
Despite my draw back and maybe further investigation that time was made good.By pure sisterhood.When I met Anne she cannot yet even speak about Joy...Anne will be a friend who I will continue to think special.I have been in hodpital before seriously ill in 1984 and it has been fine.Girls I had an experience in July which will sustain me for the rest of my life.I knew at the time it was special and held on to every deed and act.There was a spiritual reason for we three meeting.Joy moved to another hospital the day before I left.
Not good news.
Anne worked for years as a nursing assitant and she feels se had not seen such kinship.Perhaps God was showing favour to us.Bless both Anne and Joy..
