What I'm Reading #76

What would you do if you suddenly found yourself bed ridden and without any explanation to your condition; All that you did and were was no longer within your grasp--A world in which you once moved and flourished retracted to a bed upon which you languished and lingered?  And what if a friend brought you a flower pot with a wild violet from your beloved woods and a little snail?  If you are Elisabeth Tova Bailey, you would create an entirely new world!  And I've never read anything so amazing and tender and insightful from a source so authoritative and gracious.
