Thank you for your appreciative and kind words!
I find your story inspiring. Enduring discovery of brain tumors and getting treatments! All the strength to withstand and go through that.
Also volunteering for Hospice for three years!! (I never consistently volunteered like that). Eucharistic Communion to shut ins... Being a mom to three sons! What is CCD - teaching it in your Church. - you were being of service. You cannot estimate your worth but I believe it is a gem with many virtues and capacities reflected.
I've been inspired by a near death experience audio of Renee Passarow (spelling) who found that it was not the degrees or years of doing this or that that mattered in her life, but one experience. I'll find the link and share it if you like. (I found a link I hadn’t seen before about her: https://ndestories.org/reinee-pasarow/ in case you are interested.
