My Dad has won the Lottery.
Well not the lottery that gives you lots of money but the one that gives you life. Dad is eighty five years old and is living a relatively pain free life in his own little house. He has family around him that take care of his every whim and wish. Since he moved to Drayton a few years ago his life has changed for the better. Dad has a social life that he diligently takes care of ; Coffee at the "Crest" every Tuesday and Thursday, Fellowship on Sunday at a tiny old Anglican Church (Does not even have plumbing). He seems happy and content. What more could you wish for in life. To make it to eighty five with your health and dignity intact. Family and friends that care about you. Many people are not that lucky.

ReplyDeleteRiches do not always present in the form of dollars...if only we could all realize that. The world would be a better place.
ReplyDeleteVery well written! (I added the pic of you and Grandpa! Hope that's okay! I love this photo of you and him!)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Rosemary! I feel so blessed to read about your Dad. He in turn is blessed to have everyone taking care of him.
