3 years ago, my old college roommate and good friend came and stayed a week with us. We were living in a tiny apartment in Houston. Robbie had appointments and days in the hospital. she was a bright light in our darkness and went everywhere with us.

Even grocery shopping was funny, when she announced that everything really is bigger in Texas.

Helping with cooking and sleeping on an air mattress.

Spending hours at the hospital with us.

I am so thankful for all the support while Robbie was sick. It wasn’t easy to visit us. We were all sad, scared, and a little crazy, but for a little while that week, there were smiles and laughter with our tears.
