You are so right my friend! While Meg is a deeply spiritual, faith filled person, her glitz was like a bright light of hope in a dark hour and a great source of follow-up laughter - God's perfect healing medicine. So glad you got a kick out her funny thought while going into anesthesia! Sending you bright gems of blessings and a BIG hug!

Ken, thank you many times over! I am so glad you got a giggle from Meg's anesthetized thought! She is as bright a light as her glitz! Thank you for your good wishes for her continued recovery. Hope you are doing well. I understand you may need to get out your ark for a ride on the atmospheric river that is flowing in the northwest. Take care. All the best!
