*After a long, very busy, and very sad week at work I am finding it hard to turn my thoughts away from my coworkers, patients, and their families.  In the past 8 days I witnessed an entire family holding hands and praying out loud, in unison, over their dying daughter, sister, cousin, or niece.  I am not a very religious person however this was by far one of the most peaceful passings I have seen.  In the room next to them a husband picked up his wife and carried her to the gurney for her daily radiation then picked her up and placed her on the table and eventually placed her back in her bed, everyday.  As I finish this post and eventually head to my Thanksgiving dinner at my "California families" home I hope that today I can remind myself how blessed I am.   I am reminding myself to take a moment and say a quick Grace for those who perhaps have less to be thankful for this year.  And hope that whatever the outcome is, one day down the road, they come to a place where they can once again give thanks. 

Happy Thanksgiving,

Love,
A xoxo
