The fire is lit, dawn is breaking and Prayers are on the Winds



The fire is lit , sage is filling the air here;
Prayers are going UP/
"Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity." - Buddha
...
We hold up our warriors,
Billy Ray  with Yvonne right beside him; his diagnosis of Brain Cancer, yet he says "full steam ahead". Our hearts are wrapped around him as they prepare to head to Duke University for care.

EE who is preparing for treatment out there in Colorado, we are thinking about you and with you now standing for you... Word has it they are under a "freeze warning" there with the possibility of the first snow now!
brrr

 
For a young man Dakota who lost his Dad last week our prayers for strength are with you and your family, and friends.

For Chris V. our breast CA Survivor,
For Dottie Arnold who found me after 25 years, a Cancer survivor and old friend of the family, who is now taking care of her Aunt as they await news of her niece who has been diagnosed with liver Cancer, we are thinking about you there in WVA.
For Richards Family as they grieve him out in Indiana, hoping they remember the lessons he taught well and that he is but a heartbeat away as he now dances in the heavens

To those who are fighting the fight,
we are fighting alongside you and thinking about you.

Congratulations to our warrior
Tonya Palumbo and her husband Jeff

Good morning it is not good to be first sometime as I always love to read the comments and know how everyone is doing this rainy, cool morning in Virginia. This has been a very busy week with me. We had our annual Hospice grief camp for children and their parents, guardian or caregivers. It was a wonderful camp with the setting back in the words with wonderful things to do. Swinging bridge, rock wall, slides, walks in the woods lots of activities. The important along with all of these things listed was the counseling on grief for all who attended. It was a wonderful day with hotdogs, hamburgers, chips and lots of chocolate cake. We had beautiful red tee shirts for all of the kids, grown ups and staff to wear. This was our 12th. year of camp for children. I am so glad that someone finally thought of the children and their needs for counseling. I think for lots of years Hospice did not think of the children. I am so thankful for the counselors. Yvonne and Billy Ray came for a short visit and had lunch. They will be leaving on Thurs. for Duke University in NC. Blessings to them and all who is on the sam journey. Blessings.

Hello Dr. Sherry and friends. Thank you Dr. Sherry for sharing prayers for those listed. Dot/Mom/Cob, sounds like the event was very nice and uplifting for those attending. Thank you for doing all you do for so many. I wish for all those here a Peaceful and quite, restful Sunday. It is chilly here in SE Michigan and drizzle rainy. Colors on my trees outside my window have changed overnight with lovely yellows, golds and reds. Be well friends and count your Blessings as you go. /Sandy♥
