Blessings

One of my dearest most precious friends is very sick with stage four cancer, but even with that staring her in the face she is remaining positive and upbeat. She is one of the bravest people I have ever known. I have known her for over 25 years, and we don't see each other as often as we would like, but when we do, we start right where we left off the last time we saw each other. She is one of the reasons I decided to take voice lessons at age 50. She is a singer--not like me--but a trained musician. She is one of the funniest women I have ever known. I seem to just toss my head back and laugh out loud when I am with her. She has a gift of story telling and nothing is lost in the telling, if anything, the story gets better.

She is one of those beautiful, gracious women who makes everyone she is talking to feel that they are the most important person in her life. If you all are of a mind, please, say a prayer for my sweet, sweet friend, Betty. I love her like a sister.
