and i took it off and …..SAW the kantha and then FELT it…my fingers….FELT it     How Beauty FULL it is,   the repair    what it feels like

    If only broken hearts could be so easy and beautifully mended. After 60 years of marriage my sister’s husband is dying .. which at 87 after an amazing life is acceptable. However due to a Covid outbreak she is unable to be by his side .. that is unacceptable 😢thank you Grace for giving me this space to share. When you find yourself questioning weather this blogging has meaning .. don’t!!!! It means everything to me.

    To know that you come here Tina and share this with us, is such an honor. In this place called windthread, we find safety and love and understanding and blessings through each other. A long married life should not have to end with this pain… I know this feeling Tina as Rich had his quadruple bypass surgery in the throes of Covid in 2020 and I could not be with him. Sending love and strength to your sister and to all of you. You will be a blessing for her as you are for all of us.
