    Barb, I've been thinking of you all day, and hoping the news would be good. I'm so sorry you are suffering through this.
    We are here for you--don't suffer in silence or alone. Let us help if we can.

    Barb I'm glad the operation is over for your sister now it's going to be a waiting game to see how she does post surgery. Hopefully further treatment will improve her condition. I'll keep everything crossed that the outcome will be better than they are predicting at the moment.

    I'm not very good at situations like this. But I feel I should say something. I lost a son in 1985 and think of him frequently the pain doesn't go away, you just learn to deal with it. Praying for you and your sister.

    Oh my! Oh honey, I am so very sorry. :( There is nothing on earth any of us can do to make this any easier for you except be here for you, lend you support and strength when you need it most, and pray to whatever deity we each believe in.

    I've never lost a child. I can't even fathom that depth of loss and wretchedness. I've lost a brother, who was very, very dear me, and so I know that loss, and the deep and aching heart it left me with for a long time.

    I pray that your sister recovers. I pray that you have the strength to deal with whatever the future holds for her, and for the family who love her, if she doesn't.

    We're here for you, no matter what.
