The journaling.....
This man arrived here on a crazy day. I mean, c'mon Donald Trump is becoming our President. This man couldn't talk, his fever was scorching and he was filled up with fluid. Pneumonia, I heard the doctor say. So sick, but alone. How could it be a man who served in the Navy, commander of a ship in Vietnam, married just 12 years ago. With a sister. Nieces. Nephews. Alone. Placed in a an overflow room at the back of the ER. Still so alone. But wait, I hear someone saying his name. She looks quiet, but determined. She's asking aloud, "Where's room 25?" She's walking quickly back down the hall. She comes in. She leans over, takes his hand and says, "Hey, Unkie Jay, I just found out. I am here now!!"
same as Jenn... especially because I worked in hospitals here in England for a long time...and the overcrowded ERs, overcrowded wards and lonely people are something I know only too well... now I am a recurrent patient, even worse.....lucky for me I am not lonely as my daughter is with me (even though at almost 21 she drives me insane LOL) but this hit a string in my heart, and I was relieved and love the end of the journaling....gorgeous story telling, beautiful page design (I almost used the same paper for my page with the collab!!! love what you made with it!!!!)
Thanks so much for playing with us!!!!!
