day 113

Day 113
Prompt 113
The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.” Thomas Paine - author


I hope my friend will be ok with my using this picture of her I took yesterday. She is so perfect for today's quote. She is currently undergoing medical tests. After spending the day with her yesterday, during the preparation for today, all I can say is how controlled, caring and amazing she is. Ok I may have struggled to get her to drink quite as much as she was supposed to, but considering all the problems that were going on around us I'm staggered she didn't just sit down and weep. She really does smile through troubles, show strength beyond bounds and have enough bravery for us all to share. I'm so glad she's my friend.
