I'm surrounded by a few daily reminders of my time at Peachford. Every time I take a shower I see the facial scrub they confiscated (shout out to Natalie Davis and the awesome Rodan + Fields she sells) with my patient ID, DOB and Doctor info.
I turn and things like this also surround me and I realize how precious life really is.
I met a friend for dinner last night and I arrived a little early and she was a bit late so I sat back and ordered a glass of champagne which is highly out of character for me. I savored every tiny drop and even toasted cheers with 2 ladies at the next table.
Last weekend we walked in the 80 degree weather down Peachtree Street and I looked up at the sky and blinked back tears. I wanted to cry because I couldn't imagine not ever seeing a blue sky again, the sun, fresh tulips. I see life so differently now than I did before. I have such an appreciation for "the little things." I hope I hold onto that forever.
It was a good "Good Friday."
