Yesterday .. I mentioned the story about "Emanuensis" .. and Mum quite naturally said to our Healing lady, who has done wonders for my mother, Hilary is my Emanuensis .. ie her Secretary, her dogsbody ... = the person who'll do anything necessary!
The vicar also came with a volunteer visitor lady (Hilary - just to confuse the issue!!) .. and I was telling the story .. to try and explain how well my mother is in her mind; The volunteer said she'd heard of the word .. & it was from "mane" = hand in Latin .. then the vicar mentioned "Emanuel" .. El being God .. & relating it back to hand servant of God.
Hilary, the volunteer visitor, has a dog, Megan, and she will be a great additional visitor for my Mother. It looks like their brains will click and she seemed like a very nice lady, who understands the sick & ill and will understand that sometimes my mother will be asleep and will not be very responsive. I just believe we've had another blessing added into our lives.

Thank you Mr Postman - we are so lucky having volunteer visitors available to help us out, and who can read these letters for us, and give some extra stimulation to our mother ..
