An act of kindness

Our friends from Kansas City, Dennis and Mary who were at the Branson Rally have had some medical issues. Mary had to have a hysterectomy this week. She was really concerned about the operation and it's recovery. Mary was particularly worried about making it through the first night after the operation, as she had heard that is the most dangerous time. My sweet Sue told her that she would spend that night by her bedside. Monday night Sue arrived at the hospital at 6:00 in the evening and stayed by Mary's side for 12 hours in a chair. I asked her if she watched television, she said she did not want to bother Mary with the light and noise. She sat in that chair by Mary all night. Sue said the hospital care was wonderful, and the night nurse came in every 2 hours and took vitals.
I'm really proud of her, quite a gal. She is in the midst of some spoiling and pampering right now.
(Dennis is in an early stage of Alzheimer's, and they had a friend spend the night with him at their home.)
