The Pink Angel

Brenda used to tell us, “I quit smoking too late”. A nagging hack of a cough persisted for weeks that turned into months. A daughter-in-law’s leukemia took precedence over a trip to one’s own doctor. Even after her own diagnosis of lung cancer she was still holding garage sales to support her son’s family. I am going to beat this thing if that is what I am to do.
It was a losing battle…but even at the end she was still taking care of the feelings of others. No bitterness. So many people were touched by Brenda that she had to be some kind of Angel.
