OUR NEW ROOMMATE

AUG 14, 2010

What a strange way to awake. Joy and I heard voices outside early this morning of an unfamiliar voice in distress. "Help, someone help me".
Mrs. Chang, our elderly neighbor had fallen in her garage and possibly broken her hip. We called 911 and the paramedics arrived shortly thereafter. What a window into our future and our own mortality and aloneness. I'm glad we were there for her, and that Joy had the foresight to seek out the voice.
