4 Times More

I held my breath this evening when I walked into Part Terrace to visit with Sam. I didn't know what to expect after the difficult weekend. When I arrived Sam was in the main dinning room watching TV with all the others and she greeted me warmly. I could tell right away that at least she was doing well and in a good mood. She was being very loving with me all evening and when I said to her "I love you sweetie", she looked me right in the eye, took my hand and said "I love you 4 times more". As she was holding my hand she noticed that I had a slight scar and asked me about it. I told her that I had burned myself slightly opening the oven door. She put her fingers gently over the scar and said she would heal it for me. She held my hand in hers like that for a very long time and I was very moved by her gesture. I thought about putting my hands on her and trying to help her heal, but the thought made me very sad, so I just let her healing hands hold onto mine.
