Meeting an old friend

About 7 years ago I joined a support group

on yahoo. It is one for people with 

Flatback Syndrome. Was so nice to

connect with people who knew what I

was going through, had advice and just

listened. Well as much as you can 

listen on an on line board!

During the first few months I met

Kathy. We seemed to click pretty fast.

Always had something to talk about,

felt comfortable opening up to each

other about what was going on. and

when I had my surgery I knew she

was praying for me as hard as her

little southern soul could. 

When I finally made it home and starting

my recovery, I remember her calling and

praying for me on the phone. When I

hung up, I felt soo rested and content,

I slept the best I had in days. I tell ya, the

power of prayer. 

So to shorten this up a bit. I finally got

to meet up with Kathy this last December!!

We flew into Texas to see the grandbabies

and Kathy and her hubby had moved up

from Houston, so it finally worked out

where we could meet! It was wonderful

to see her, give her a real life hug and

see that pretty face in person! We had

the nicest visit, much too short. And 

now that they have moved up to the

Dallas/Ft.Worth area, I will be able to

visit whenever we fly in! Yippee!

Me and Kathy

I love shy little boys seeing santa, and

little boys sporting a cute little mohawk, and

little girls who love their baby dolls, and

little girls who want to have sleepovers with

their grammies  and

awaiting the birth of my newest grandbaby in 

June, and

Bob's tattoos of the kids names on his leg, and

seeing mommy and son napping together, and

little boys in button up shirts, and

little boys in levi's, and

little girls who like to wear dresses, and

the power of prayer.
