Extra Christmas present.

Today, as I was getting up from my nap, the phone rang. I´m a little bit tired with phone calls but as soon as I heard the voice on the other side, I thought that this was a miracle. I had a friend for several years. This one was not my friend from the start, but a dear friend gave her to me as a sort of legacy. After maybe 3 or four years, she stopped calling or answering the phone, I tried and tried and nothing happened. I thought that maybe she had died (she had had a well treted cancer) or that she had left the coutry (her daughters lived abroad). But I could not know so I stopped calling. And now, out of nowhere, she called me! I recognised her voice and she told me that she had been ill. She was now with one of her daughters who had come to visit her and I told her that, as soon as she was alone, she would have to come here to talk. I told her that her call had been a Christmas present and that´s how I feel.

It is really surprising to hear from someone whom you thought have passed away already. It's good that she is still okay...

Out of the blue calls can truly make one;s day. I had one from one of my classmates this Christmas - in years.

How wonderful is that? I am so pleased for you both. People lose touch for all sorts of reasons but it's lovely that she has made contact now.
