I am so sorry I did not know...My dear sweet friend. I am so sorry I did not know about your Mom. I know first hand how this can be, 20 years ago my dad (who was only 55yo) complained about a backache, went to the dr. and came back with a terminal cancer dx. He lived for two weeks...we were in shock. I am so sorry you and your loved ones have had to deal with the loss of your mom, dad's surgery and your health issues. Know that RIGHT now, I lifted you up in prayer. Be blessed my sweet friend and know ABOVE all else, you are loved!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07451856462658763040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664224430545967661.post-83160672839521335632011-12-20T13:56:22.366-06:002011-12-20T13:56:22.366-06:00you don't need me tell you what has already be...you don't need me tell you what has already been said here, which of course is sage advice...<br />hope today and the holidays bring you some joy!<br />just a thought too: sometimes having a distraction like decorating and taking photos is good to get your mind off of any sadness and worry you might be feeling...i know sometimes those distractions help me from time to time.<br />Merry Christmas to you!SLRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01508801787684614107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664224430545967661.post-35910954009643310972011-12-17T23:13:33.583-06:002011-12-17T23:13:33.583-06:00Thank you for being vulnerable enough to be honest...Thank you for being vulnerable enough to be honest and share your pain.

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. My mother, 73 yrs. old just lost her mom, 98 yrs. old 3 weeks ago. My mother is suffering so much right now, she even said life will never be the same. I wasn't close to my grandmother she lives in Louisiana and I never saw her very much. So we didn't have the same bond as I did with my Northern Gram. My 14 yr. old daughter lives here at home, but has been on life support for 1 yr now. You will be in our prayers. Take care of you, and may your journey of healing keep on and the new bond with your father help sooth your soul. Faith and love truly do go a long way. God Bless. <br />JoyKATIES MOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13706049873389157755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664224430545967661.post-56535760793781218702011-12-14T21:51:23.851-06:002011-12-14T21:51:23.851-06:00oh Anne, you are such a beautiful soul and your pe...oh Anne, you are such a beautiful soul and your perspective is perfect. just perfect.<br />I hope that you and your dad are both on the mend and that along with your physical mending that your heart is growing stronger every day.<br />I will be here, ready when you are.
