I was pleading for her to make it! I could feel her despair when you described the open suitcases surrounded by belongings, and then at every obstacle. Not an easy couple of days under any circumstances, but to do it while so ill? What a feat of tenacity!
You convey her illness, her hope and her desperate travelling with such clarity, I was holding my breath until she was safely arrived and healthy again - and I lived every bump she encountered along the way. A great read.

Thanks, Sam. I still get upset reading about this time... I've always loathed packing, and this didn't help!

I still choke up when I read these passages again... Glad the stress comes through, but sorry for putting you through it!
