Every day brings Little Miracles
Source: JournalNow.com
Bea Ackenbom-Kelly and her husband, Sid Kelly, are both dying.
But in the past few months, their house off Country Club Road has brimmed with life with the frequent comings and goings of family and friends.
Friends from their church, St. Anne’s Episcopal, and from Ackenbom-Kelly’s book club have come over and brought food. Their children and grandchildren have visited. And people they haven’t talked to in years have called.
“It feels like little miracles everyday when you hear from somebody you haven’t heard from in 30 years,” Ackenbom-Kelly said yesterday.
She said she has had a chance to mend estranged relationships and deepen other ones.
Both she and her husband, Sid Kelly, a founder of Crossing 52, a group devoted to improving race relations, have been getting care from Hospice & Palliative CareCenter in Winston-Salem.
