"I was just dreaming about white birds."
My dear brother, Jonathon, brightly greeted me with these words, sharing comfort and love, not sadness, as I entered his room for our last visit together. He so bravely faced ALS, his faith in God strong and steady. When asked how he bore such suffering for so long with such quiet dignity, he simply said, "by God's grace." As was his sweet nature, he lovingly gifted each of his "dear ones" with one last shared joyous embrace in this life.

Glimmer of hope
There is yet hope, life abounds. Look around, there is so much to see. Life and beauty are everywhere, try to see the awesome glimmer through the haze of days and the darkness of nights.
