A lady at our church, J, just lost her daughter.  I used to babysit her kids when I was a teen, so the daughter would be about late 40's, early 50's.  Daughter was adopted as an infant.  Looking back over the years she probably had attachment issues.  I don't think it was well known then, she was just the girl that made people think twice about adopting.  Although it could have been mental disorders from bio-parents.
She was smart.  She was an RN who was on a heart transplant team, early in her career.  She got into drugs and lost everything.  For several years she's been trying to get clean and get a job. I'd always had an uneasy feeling around her the last 10 years.  I think it was my RADar going off.  The fake smiles and small talk seemed so phony, but I was probably just as phony back.
I haven't had a chance to visit with J.  She has friends who are closer and probably know better what to do.  I do know to pray for her peace.  Pray for understanding friends and acquaintances, pray for J's granddaughter, pray for J's other children and their children.

sometimes courage is the quiet voice
at the end of the day saying,
