My friend passed away today


Got the phone call that my friend Helen(that I had mentioned from previous post) passed away today.

We never want to loose our loved ones, but she was struggling just to breathe.  She was exhausted from the effort.  She is now in a far better place than we are now.  The Priest came yesterday to administer last Rites and she was aware.  She actually smiled at him. So, she was ready to leave this place.

Thanks everyone for all your support during this very taxing time.  You are all such good friends and I love each and everyone of you.

My condolences to you Clara,  losing a loved one, be they family or a fear friend, is never easy. But what helped me deal with it when my brother,( not blood related), past away last year from Lymphoma, was knowing he suffered no more. No pain, no feeling of lost hope. He found peace. and for that i am grateful.
 I talk to him everyday, and it helps a lot,even when i'm driving,it getting easier as time goes bye. So if you ever want to talk  we are here for you.


 God Bless,

I'm glad you are at such peace about your friend, letting go is very hard and you have done that so admirably.

I have such a hard time letting go of anything, a piece of paper, an object, let alone a human.  Resentment is one of the ways I hold onto them.

Maresie.
