#252  elderly lady at store shuffling, holding onto walker with her aid by her side.  She was wearing a UNC shirt.  I asked her if she was watching the game tonight.  Her face lit up…eyes shined.

…No one can stop the joy that naturally seeps from her very being and her frail, translucent skin. 

Her smile stretched across her wrinkled face and I couldn’t help but smile back.  She talked and talked how she loves to watch basketball and was cheering for both NC teams, so proud for both of them having gone this far.

Her joy contagious…
