Finding Strength

I’m sitting here all alone save the cat who finds it amusing to continuously bite me. I’m reading an awfully sad book right now about a man who’s wife has passed away, his house and cars are repossessed and his business partner walks away with the business and all the clients. He is left with nothing. In his despair he decides to walk from Seattle, Washington to Key West, Florida. Under normal circumstances this book would make me cry until I had to put away due to temporary blindness from my tears. Strangely however, it brings me comfort. Comfort in knowing that my loneliness is not permanent due to death.  

Sean is in San Antonio, Texas doing an audition rotation for 4 weeks. Following that 8 more weeks in two more states. I am so proud of him.  I have a lot to learn from him. When I came to Columbus I had my best friend by my side. Today Sean entered into a brand new world.  Surrounded by the unfamiliar. A new hospital, new people and new challenges- alone. 

He is getting some hands on experience in the field of Physical Medicine and Rehab and it’s different aspects to ensure that is where he would like to see his medical practice take him. 

Tonight I am grateful to for a such strong, caring man to call mine. I am happy for this opportunity and anxious to see what doors it will open as residency draws nearer.  

Good luck my love.
