Thank you for sharing this, although I know it isn’t the easiest subject to write about. Eloquence eludes me, but be assured that you are in my prayers.

Thank you. This I believe with all my heart. At 92 and with a fib, one needs to be ready to go.

Ann, I love and admire your transparency and vulnerability in this piece. There's such a mutual respect and affection between you and the teens you're tutoring that is especially poignant. I see you boldly sharing your faith in your writing, and I know this is something you wrestled with based on our conversations in Foster. Your faith is authentic, and there's a freedom in your writing that has strengthened your voice and your point of view. Bravo. And also, I'm praying that your heart will hold out for many years to come.
