Jimmie, now 91, is in hospice now, is not really responsive and is dying. She and I have talked about heaven and angels a lot over the last few years.
So I've been by her bedside, reading Joan Wester Anderson's true stories of angelic encounters and interventions to her (whose books I highly recommend.) They always made my own mother feel happy and they cheer me up, too. I do believe that even though people may not be able to respond, they still hear us. ...
