Today was like a roller coaster ride, up, down, round, round, faster, faster, speeding up, speeding down, screaming, laughing, the wind in my face, tears in my eyes, my neck whipping from one spot to another. Going so fast trying to focus, trying to maintain my composure, trying to see everything and remember everything, trying not lose my perspective as everything whipped around faster and faster scared that at the very next curve I would be thrown and go barreling out into space lost into the unknown never to feel solid ground again.
Then HE saved me as always HE threw me a lifeline....GOD is like that HE is always there when I am so confused, scared and unsure of what I am going to do. As you know, I was trying to go back to work today. When I got up to leave this morning, D cried. He didn't want anyone to stay with him but me and I felt the same way. We are the same, our hearts beat in unity, we think alike, we have become as one over the years. He is my person, I am his we are suppose to go through this together right up to the end. That's what you do for your person. You are there no matter what, but in reality, life requires that you have obligations to meet.
With tears in my eyes, I leave for another day at work and a miracle occurs.
I must work for the most amazing person in the world. It's true, she is unbelievable, her heart must be as big as the Grand Canyon because she and the physicians I work for decided that my place is with D and that I need to be home with him as long as he needs me. My job is there when I am ready to come back. What a great person she is to go to bat for me and D, to hold me, let me cry and comfort me, to be a friend more than a boss. To reach out when she didn't have to and touch our lives in a way that was absolutely one of the grandest gestures of love and support possible. GOD IS GOOD IN THE PEOPLE HE HAS PLACED IN OUR LIVES !
Rushing home to tell D I am reminded that very often the people you think will step up and provide comfort and support in times of difficulty don't, but before you get down or disappointed in them, GOD will surprise you with a totally unexpected blessing that restores your faith in times of trouble and tragedy.

So glad you work for someone who is understanding and knows that David needs you and you need him. That lifeline that God throws is strong and forever...
