Walking Through the Storm

Walking Through the Storm by Sue k Green Cold and blustery, with windblown snow, I try to make my way; but the paths I remember have changed so in a day. Deep drifts challenge my every step as I make new footprints through the storm, so tired and confused faced with this new norm. Behind I leave our shared dreams and much that we have known, walking this path for two in directions now unknown. I search for street signs and help along this lonely trail but sometimes feel so overwhelmed with all this new detail. Love must speak for something and determination pave the way taking ‘one day at a time’ we should find our way. I must believe the storm will end, the sun will shine and our lives together can withstand this new design. through the eyes and mind of a caregiver facing life ahead with post-stroke loved one
