PADDY, the once-terrified

PADDY, the once-terrified, freezing, starving, limping-on-two-legs, wouldn’t come into the garage, couldn’t be touched, stray cat. Now ‘helping’ me with emails and office work. I know you guys are probably tired of seeing these pictures/posts. But as I tell Kathy (whom he loves best) it just makes me SO HAPPY on some days to simply look at him. To watch him play string with Kathy or snuggle on her lap. To think back to when we first saw him and I tried to care for him and feed him in the garage while Kathy was in and out of the hospital and in great pain and we were both scared… to remember the first time Paddy finally let me touch him…. And to look at him now and know that he is SAFE. And happy. To know that Kathy is now cancer-free! And today received excellent news on some heart tests the doctor had scheduled… It seems like an amazing journey.
On days when other things are not great in the world, or in me, I look at this little guy, and I think of ALL of that, and I smile.
