Jill and Joe had always taken care of the horses. I was alone. Desperate and exhausted, I rested my forehead on the horse fence and felt Jill's love for them fill me. Soon after, I met Debbie, who agreed to come and care for them twice a day. She did that and more. A cancer survivor, she said I'd be surprised by who is there for me, and who is not. She was so right.
This brings tears to my eyes. Brava, Debbie!
