While taking a walk in town, my husband and I met an acquaintance walking her dog. We stopped to chat. I had prior knowledge that she had recently been diagnosed with early Alzheimer’s. Asking how she was doing, I could see in her eyes a sense of despair, but bravely sounding optimistic. I asked her if we could pray with her for a blessing. She agreed. At the end, she was smiling and thankful for us.
