Until now, I had refrained from saying anything specific about the love, prayers, and thoughts so many people have generously and unconditionally given me. There are so many of you and so many experiences that I have chosen not to refer to any one specifically.
But, and as a portent of today's good news, one of the most wondeful gifts I have ever received arrived in the post yesterday.
1000 (yes, one thousand) origami paper cranes, each no more than one and half inches long, have been folded by a very dear close friend in Japan over the last few weeks, threaded in a traditional manner onto strings, and sent to me... and they "landed" here yesterday - bearing one wish, for my recovery. Oh boy.
(As you may discover via wiki and your favourite search engine, it is an ancient Japanese legend that promises anyone who folds 1000 origami cranes will have a wish fulfilled... and in this case, that wish is focused on me.)
Wow!
