Going to the Temple on the Hill Soon...

Good Evening Everyone

It has been too long since I last wrote. I have just been enjoying life outside the hospital and getting fresh air and connections with family, friends and Spirit. It has been a really amazing several weeks.

I am going back to the Temple on The Hill (the hospital) on Tuesday Oct. 17th. In some ways I am very ready to take this next step towards healing, but in other ways I wish I could do it from the comforts of my own home.

I had a cold last week and am still coughing a bit, but aside from that it feels as though it has moved thru my system pretty quickly.

The past 6 months have been such a huge journey. It is odd, there are times during these past few weeks, when I am in my life, I am struck with the enormity of all of this. Then there are times when it seems that life is just normal and I do not have Leukemia.

I have this opportunity to look at my life and all its many blessings and its challenges in a very different way.
I have been confronted with fears that were just below the surface.

I have been given the gift to see Community in action and experience how much Love I am surrounded by all the time.

I have been able to see how delicate Life is and how strong the Human Spirit is at the same time.

I have been able to see how many Loving People there are in this world from the capacity of love in my husbands and families hearts, from the people I know and Love in my communities, to the communities that are connected thru my communities, from my family and the people that love them, to the doctors and nurses and all the various staff at UCSF, to my donor who is so willing to give apart of herself. I have experienced first hand the power of Prayer and intention and how willing people are to pray for one another.

As if I ever had a doubt about any of these things, to be at the receiving end of so much Love, brings me to my knees and breaks my heart wide open.

And the thing is I know that it will continue not just for me but it will continue to happen for everyone we love and for everyone who needs these things. That is the most beautiful thing of all. That we have so much Capacity for Love and it is possible to be in that place at all times.

When I pack my several bags and all my sacred items and get in the car to go to UCSF, the Temple on the Hill. I will carry peace in my heart and a smile on my face because I feel so taken care of and so strong in my body and in my heart and in my Spirit and it is because of the LOVE.

Thank you Thank you Thank you.
Sweet Dreams

Big Prayers.
Big Love
And Big Purrrrrs.

Namaste
Victoria
