So we bonded over that.
She is, of course, a White Sox fan, growing up in the shadow of Comiskey Park. And I asked her what she thinks of Ozzie Guillen, the current White Sox manager. Who, by the way, must be in his 40's or 50's. Her response was, "Oh, all those guys look like they just got out of high school!"
Somewhere in the course of all this delightful conversation, I was actually working and she was walking and exercising and telling me about her knee pain. When I got ready to leave, I told her how happy I was to have met her. I got to the door of her room and she said, "Do you like angels?"
Now, who in their right mind doesn't like angels? Yes, of course, I said.
Well, pick out an angel from the shelf and take it with you, she said.
I looked to my right and there sat about a dozen angels, all different sizes, shapes and materials. I picked this one.
Don't you want a bigger one? She asked. No, I answered, this one is perfect.
When I got home, I looked at the bottom of the angel and saw that it's a "Healing Angel" and Sierra saw it and said the angel is holding a sparrow.
Angels everywhere.

So lovely! You are an angel, too. And so is she.
Oh, I like this story very much! And I love that you picked the "Healing Angel".
