By: Susanne Sims When my mother was in the final stages of her life, I was blessed to spend ten life-changing days at her side. Not all of us may have the chance to be present at the death of another, but if we can, it is something to behold and to treasured.

CORONA VIRUS – A SEARCH FOR MEANING
As the world comes to grips with the reality of a new global pandemic, it seems this is a critical moment to reflect. Perhaps an interesting place to start is to consider the word “corona” itself.

The sun’s corona is normally visible only during a total solar eclipse, when it is seen as an irregularly shaped pearly glow surrounding the darkened disk of the moon. 2. Anatomy — a part of the body resembling or likened to a crown. In the first definition, the corona appears…
