Leaking into heaven

My friend has Alzheimer's, and she loves Jesus.
She raised her kids, taught piano, all the while loving Jesus.
Now she is leaking into heaven
Every day a bit more there, a bit less here,
Drip by drip she's been leaving us,
Gradually moving into her new digs,
It seems natural for her to do it this way
After all, her hearts been there already a very long time.
Now she's pretty much all there. I wonder do they say
"but dear, your body. " I can hear her answer now. She'd laugh, smile and say "oh don't worry about that old thing,  it'll be along soon enough."
She's leaking into heaven and now she's rarely here.
