In feeling blue about Frau Reinke’s passing …
… today, the Universe delivered a lesson. I saw a man feeding his wife a hot dog. She was confined to a wheelchair and shook uncontrollably. Obviously in the late stages of Parkinson’s. She was obviously totally dependent on him for her care. And, he was lovingly and diligently feeding her. (Give him a lot of credit.)
So that was my lesson!
Frau Reinke would have been crazed to be like that. And, it would have been infinitely harder work for me to do that for her. (I would have but it would have been a lot harder and emotional for both of us.
So the Universe said today, “It could have been a lot worse for both of you.”
And showed me.
I’m glad she didn’t have to suffer like that.
And, I’m “fine as silk”. :-(
