"The difficult I can do today. The impossible will take a little longer." (Billie Holiday)
Six weeks ago, difficult was sleeping for more than a 1/2 hour and impossible was standing up to eat. Then we began to sleep many hours without needing a "check-in" and could stand up for meals with a little help.
Three weeks ago, difficult was standing up from lying down and impossible was walking unassisted. Sam is now often doing both many times a day.
Now, difficult is walking on hardwood floors and impossible is climbing the stairs. Who knows what's next?
For me, difficult is helping without interfering and impossible is staying present to the miracle that is Sam while knowing that "to everything there is a season"... I'm working on it...
