Wishing you a full recovery and sending you many well wishes of comfort.

Paige,

I don't remember ever reading that quote from Whitman, but it is beautiful and very appropriate in times of stress. Thank you for posting it with your wishes for Jim's health.

Now, Mr. Garrett, do what Paige and Walt say and turn to the sun so that you ignore any shadows!
I wasn't aware these words were Whitman's. I would have thought of Laotse, or the old Irish, as the quote reminds me of one of my favorite old Irish prayers:

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

(And I pray He will!)
