Spring.......
Today her doctor said she could go outside in a wheelchair if she would like. It was a beautiful day. Doc ok'd disconnecting her IV lines so we didn't have to take the pump with us, and said stay out as long as she would like.
The sun was shining, the birds were singing...
There were some bright yellow daffodils around the walkway...
We walked around a large garden that is on the hospital grounds. It's actually like a small park. There are benches and some interesting sculptures.
There weren't many flowers besides the daffodils and a few azaleas, but that didn't matter. The smile on my mother's face was more beautiful than anything I've seen in a long time..

Sorry for digging into your archives: I find it comforting to go back and follow your and your mom's journey. You have always written so beautifully that I feel it is important to read every last word.
Beauty and hope have an incredible ability to grow out of the most challenging circumstances. Only unique people can appreciate it. You clearly did on this day.
