Paige is my husband's niece, so mine by marriage. She was in her mid-twenties when she was "found down" in her apartment, after having a stroke the day before. It was such a scary and terrible thing for her family, devastating for her parents. My husband's sister, Sharon, devoted herself to caring for Paige, all the while losing a battle with breast cancer herself. Very bad things can happen to good families. None of us are immune from life. Anything can happen, any time.
Paige still uses a walker and doesn't have a lot of muscle control on one side of her body. An aspiring photographer and A student once, days from graduating with a great future ahead of her, the road sharply curved. She's lost so much, and she suffers still. But every now and again we will have a delightful conversation via text messaging and I say a prayer for her continued health and piece of mind.
