The Walk Beside

As far away from chemo as you can get.

Us on a sensational beach, very much like all the other beaches in WA.

Contemplating a swim.

One not to show my Orthopedic specialist. This is the ‘before’ picture, showing how fabulously fit I am before high-dose. I am pretty sure the ‘after’ picture will show those same robust arms clinging to a toilet bowl.

My wonderful cousin (they all are) Conor and her hubby DJ spoiled us by organising a looking after by Knee Deep winery, just outside of Dunsborough. And look after us they did. Highly recommend the food, wine and service.

I got this candid picture capturing Elizabeth in a natural moment.

I wonder…

When you begin understand and share in someone else’s grief, you may join with them in crying. But there is a kind of crying where you just can’t get words out. The kind of crying where you gasp for breath, your throat stings with pain, your eyes are swollen, you look a mess and your voice doesn’t respond to your brain’s efforts to utter an intelligible sound.

I wonder if this was God’s intention when piecing us together, a way of saying, “Don’t say a thing, just weep with those who are weeping.”
