I never knew Mary before the Alzheimers had set in. To her each meeting with me was brand new. Every time we met she would tell me how lovely I was. Maybe we should all look at our meetings with others as brand new – wipe the slate clean, cancel the bill. Or as Paul put it:
Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
Nice post. This picture really shows her personality etched in the lines of her face.
