Jingles

This is the true story of Jingles. When my children were in grade school we lived in Western Canada ~ specifically Edmonton, Alberta ~ for a short time. We were on a beautiful grain farm outside the city limits. Because of our Canadian neighbor, our children were blessed to participate in Canadian Pony Club. Since […]

Sunrise in the Texas Hill Country

It was a crisp sunny morning in East Texas, with a dewy sparkle on the ground and the promise of springtime in the air. You may remember my dear home health patient, Miss Millie, who lived near me and was therefore the first one I would see in the mornings. Well, Miss Hadie Pearl was […]

irene

Miss Irene was my home health patient. She was a feisty, slender, seventy-six year old widow ~ just discharged from the hospital with a new colostomy. When she’d left the hospital, unfortunately, she’d been somewhat unprepared for life with a new ostomy ~ this is often the case for many who are in her situation. […]

beige kitty

Every cat owner enjoys napping with THE CAT ~ right? But often, THE CAT ~ for reasons known only to himself ~ bolts from the scene.  What can be the cause of this behavior, you ask? THE CAT has noted that often, when there is an attempt to nap with a human, the human inadvertently interferes […]

  This post was inspired by my delightful friend Camille Handley, who had a way of summing it all up with one phrase: “So this is what it is..” As co-workers Camille and I indulged in many philosophical conversations over the years. And rightfully so, because in our profession there was plenty of competition, stress, […]

Horses snow

“God made the horse from the breath of the wind, the beauty of the earth, and the soul of an angel.” A brother and sister made their usual hurried, obligatory pre-Christmas visit to the little farm where dwelt their aging parents with their small herd of horses. The farm was where they had grown up and had been […]

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”Leo Buscaglia I sometimes reminisce about my memorable days as a home health nurse in rural East Texas.
