My Aunt Gloria 

My Aunt Gloria

I spent 5 days down in south Texas making sure my aunt after breaking her hip was recuperating well.
Thank God when I got there the hospital stay ended, and I pretty much had to go to the assisted living home and be with her there. WHere there is lots of help and attention to help her out. I spent time with her, some days singing some days crying because she was hurting and I did not want to see her hurt.
All my life I learned so much from her, and the feelings that go through me while I watch her
are so strong and emotional, it is hard to explain. I know that at her age (93) you would think she would be a weak person,, but she is far from it. She is a tough ole bird. I wish I had 1/2 the strength she has.
I know she saw in my eyes, the worrying, the sadness, but she sang mexican songs with me
and made me laugh. I love her dearly, and I know someday God will take her away from me,
and right now I hope is not the time. But when he does, it will be painful for me but I know
in my heart she will be in a better place, looking down on us and dancing in heaven.
I left her with a heavy heart, yet, at peace, because I know after spending 5 days there, she is
in good hands. I call every morning and she is progressing slowly but surely.

God willing she will be able to be her old self again soon.
