I am so sorry!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your kind words on my blog. The emotions you describe here really mirrors a lot of what I'm feeling right now. It just doesn't seem fair that something so terrible could happen to someone so sweet and young and with so much potential. <BR/><BR/>That, and I am very conscious of the fact that he's someone's son and that this could easily befall one of my own! I can't imagine what his poor mother is going through right now...Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05451957392894462983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-810163108481683709.post-723045897414743432008-05-17T19:26:00.000-04:002008-05-17T19:26:00.000-04:00This is a great meme.

My mother lost her sister due to lung cancer as well at the age of 56, 7 years ago. It is a horrible horrible scary disease!<BR/><BR/>I sure hope that you get a novel published as well. Then I can brag that I've been corresponding with this famous novelist and that I know her personally for quite some time then :D....<BR/><BR/>it's a fun meme, I might play as well. I'm just already 20 posts behind in my mind that I haven't been able to type out yet.

It's hard having her gone, but we were 11 years apart in age, so I wasn't as close with her as we might have been. I really feel more that it was a tragedy that shouldn't have happened. But don't we always feel that way when death comes too early? And I'm so glad you have your sister in your life - from the glimpses from your blog, it sounds like you two have a wonderful relationship!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02362687820368214420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-810163108481683709.post-21153284304044681972008-05-04T12:57:00.000-04:002008-05-04T12:57:00.000-04:00I love this meme!

I remember reading Madonna was obsessed with making it to her Mothers age. Hopefully in 10 years I'll be married, a mother, and happy with CS somewhere between here and Sweden with a fufilling job or my own buisness.glamah16https://www.blogger.com/profile/16724763173861801914noreply@blogger.com
