Independence Day

Mid-Summer                                                                                                         Waning Garlic Moon

July 4th.  Kate celebrates her independence from the hospital and from the hip pain she has endured for so many years.  Her recovery has settled into a familiar path and she looks to be back on her feet without aid sooner than you might think.  She’s already walking with the aid of a walker, getting herself out of and almost back in to bed.  And this is just three days post-op.  She’s tough and the procedure makes this early mobility possible; it’s great advantage.

Her color has improved to normal and she got good sleep last night.

The house loses a lot of its warmth and resonance without Kate here.  I’m looking forward to having her back.
