My daughter, Ranna, who battled breast cancer for three years and conquered it, has another battle to fight.
On April 7, doctors will insert two or three stents in her heart.
Because I am very concerned about her and I am feeling very stressful, I am spending more time outside in my yard. I am adding roses in my backyard, planting daisies and adding a juniper in the front yard.
Being outside and digging in the dirt makes me feel much better. I am feeling the hope that spring brings.
As Charlotte Bronte wrote in Jane Eyre, “Spring drew on…and a greenness grew over those brown beds, which, freshening daily, suggested the thought that Hope traversed them at night, and left each morning brighter traces of her steps.”
