I woke this morning thinking about an old friend of mine, Jeanie, that I have not talked to in some time. I called her as soon as I came downstairs. I found out she had been in the hospital twice this month already, once for open heart surgery and the other time for obstructed bowels. It is sad to hear she was not feeling well. I offered to help her in any way I could. She quietly said “I can’t get out of bed and would love a cup of coffee”. So I asked if she needed anything from the grocery store also. She wanted old fashioned sugar cookies. So I made a trip to the store to purchase the cookies and go to her home. She definitely was not well from looking at her appearance. I made the coffee for her and me. She however was not able to drink much coffee or even eat the cookies she so desperately wanted. Her stomach was hurting her too much. She did enjoy my company for a few hours before she looked very tired and sleepy. I told her I was leaving so she could take her nap. She apologized for her condition. I told her that I understood she was not well and would come back and visit her another time. She told me when she gets well we would go out to eat lunch some place. I am glad I did go and see her today even in her condition.
