Happy 98th Birthday Arlene

by Kay Heitsch
This week I stopped over to visit Arlene in the nursing home. Arlene informed me that she was going to be taking a trip up north to spend her 98th birthday with her son.
We talked about several things as we always do. One thing that really struck me was when she said, "One thing I'm really thankful for is that I can get up and go to the bathroom on my own." How often have I gotten up to go to the bathroom at night and never thought about being thankful that I could?
I'm happy Arlene is doing well for being 98 years old! She has been a wonderful friend and has taught me to be thankful for every day things.
