23.

my last day with hospice home care.  very sad.  i am going to miss these people:

the nurses and doctors are just so good here.  they are patient, and they work in circumstances that many of the nurses in the u.s. wouldn't deal with.  {they are overworked and underpaid}.  plus, they are fun and so generous.  they kept throwing food at me today.  {delicious food, by the way} and i felt like i was going to burst!

{this shaved ice is made of green tea, so naturally, i didn't eat it.  but look how pretty!}
