A Beautiful Thing

From the ICU to the dance floor…Ten long months in the making. Time measured more by moments than minutes. Tiny leaps of independence, endless stretches, small milestones of movement gained.

From isolation to camaraderie. The slow search to find like-minds, understanding, compassion. Healing measured more by acceptance than accolades. Eschewing bitterness, expressing grief.

From the unknown to the known. Fear lessening more than subsiding. A new normal to search out and eventually be found. Gratitude rising, giving back. A survivor’s journey. A beautiful thing.
