Living and Loving
Adjusting to the passing of her brother included her move to Florida.
She was delighted by the Sandhill Cranes, but naïve to the connection with her brother until one particular crane that had consistently followed her around in the yard pecked at a glass hummingbird she had placed in a flower pot until it broke.
Only then did she realize he was still with her, now in another form!
(See the previous Sacred Story about Hummingbird: He is All Around Me.)
Her younger brother had recently transitioned with cancer. She had been watching a particular hummingbird with a strong sense of her brother.
All of a sudden, the hummingbird came over and landed on a plant stand two feet from her! He stopped flapping his wings and sat looking at her.
He was black with an orange neck. Orange is the ribbon color for kidney cancer like pink is the ribbon color for breast cancer.
She knew her brother to be in a wonderful place. He let her know that one more time.
She said, “I miss him physically, but spiritually he is all around me.”
