I was just about to go to bed when I realized that today is the Ides of March. Now this may be just another day in March for most people but for me and my family...this is a quiet celebration for surviving open heart surgery 25 years ago. Thank you Doctor Sanifilpo for bringing me back. Thank you Ken for the TLC I received and to my sister Donna Marie for being there when my children were still so small. Lupus is a crazy companion but I am still HERE! My words seem so inadequate now...but today is a small celebration for me and my family! Gratitude. Peace. and Survival. Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
Oh gosh, I forgot the Ides of March! First year I think I had missed it! Et to Brutus?
ReplyDeleteWow, open heart surgery 25 years ago? That is a cause for celebration! It's been 20 years since hubby's heart attack. I have lots to be grateful for too! Bless you for dealing with Lupus. My MIL had it too for many years.
Thank You!!! I try to find something to celebrate each and every day!!! God has a plan for me and I am still here to enjoy my life as an artist and my wonderful grandchildren! Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
