Yesterday when I went to the RE doctor for my ultrasound, I was getting out of the car and walked past a smiling blonde woman. She looked at me almost like we knew each other so it caught me off guard but she told me "I like your shirt". I smiled and thanked her and told her my Mom got it for me from Kohl's.
As I walked into the REI clinic, I noticed the same blonde woman walking in behind me with her (I am guessing) husband. It struck me a bit that this nice woman was there possibly for the same reasons I was. We both waited in line to check in and smiled at each other. I sat behind her and her husband. I noticed a few moments later that she grabbed her husband close and was whispering in his ear. This went on for quite a while but then noticed her eyes were shut. They were praying. My heart sank and I couldn't hold back the tears. Seeing those two together in the REI clinic waiting room and praying hit me like a ton of bricks. I walked away and teared up in the bathroom and used a tissue to blot my eyes. They called her name and her name is Lindsey. I feel for her...I wanted to hug her yesterday and I wish I had. I am really thinking about her and only hope and wish the best for them both.
I wonder if I will run across Lindsey again?
