Well, I don't know if this is the place to post all of this but you guys have been soooo good for me in my recovery from my dear daughter's death so I will tell you all. It seems that my sister may have 3 to 13 months to live. That's for people with cancer but she has a complication of copd, also. I don't think she realizes this. We are pretty frank with each other normally and she hasn't said, "I am going to die." or anything. So I guess I will just wing it with her. Thank each and every one of you very very much for your kind words. It really does help me talk about it. I think of all our members as friends and that is very dear to me.
Barb, I cannot tell you how sorry I am that this has been visited on you. Please keep us all posted, and feel free to ask for a shoulder to cry on if needed. God bless you, and your sister.
Oh honey, saying "I'm so sorry" is completely inadequate, but I am, nonetheless, so deeply sorry for what you and your family are dealing with. I know that in adversity, the more support the better, so I hope you'll avail yourself of that...here, with family, friends, church...wherever you have folks to support you through this. Not that anyone can actually DO anything, but just knowing you have a soft place to fall when you need one can be very comforting. And of course, if there's ANYTHING any of us can do for you, you have only to ask. ((((Barb))))
