Inspiration to Uncle Walter

Ariane, darling: Please, print this out and give it to Walter! Thank you- Love, Lisa

Dearest Walter!

We were so glad to hear, that you are home again - now you will get better, slowly, but surely....Went through similar situations, as you know ,but it will take a lot of patience to adjust. Please, get all the help that is available and do not try to do things on your own! I understand, you have a good Attendant now, use her presence as much as possible!

I consider myself so lucky, that over the last few years we had a chance to be together, with our families and friends! You are blessed with a brilliant mind, I hope this will help you philosophically to accept the limitations you may have to carry on with - I know, how hard this is, but indubitably possible! When you feel a little better, try to find humor in some situations, that DOES help! Right now, concentrate on the healing process, a mind (especially your brilliant mind...) is a powerful thing!

Music also helps me personally to accept sometimes certain difficult situations (remember the "Hobellied" from the "Verschwender"..?

So, keep on keeping on, as "they" say...We love you immeasurably and strongly feel, that you will get better, every day in every way!!!

Hugs to you and Ariane, your wonderful wife!

Love, Lisa,

"Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything."

Does that mean, you worry or you don't?

It means I worry less than sometimes I should :).
How are you feeling today?

Actually, your way is really better for your health Click Me!))) in the long run!

Had a rough night, but finally took a pain pill this morning and am beginning to feel a little better...sorry, I could not talk to you last night, but love you bunches!!! Thanks for calling...

Have a great day, and don't worry! There are two emotions that are rather useless and not very productive: "Regret" (what is in the past) and "Worry",( what might happen), so "they say"...

If at all possible, live in the Present, a day is a gift from God and truly a present ! Have Fun...

Love, MOM
