About 3 months ago her young son lost his battle with the disease of addiction. Since that time she has been doing well but also misses her beautiful son very much. When I talked to her she told me that a coworker approached her and said "This is for you". The coworker then handed her a heart shaped rock that she had picked up somewhere earlier. For what ever reason she believed she was supposed to give it to my...
