Back in 2010 there was a news article about a homeless woman who died. She used to hang around the hospital and I mentioned in my blog that a friend would give her money. That is the very same friend who died. She had a very big heart.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15045554938847356871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-16930800344182827202015-05-31T19:24:26.709-04:002015-05-31T19:24:26.709-04:00I started reading the obits years ago.

I've already lost several friends over the years (mostly to cancer, but one to a disease that destroyed her liver, and she was unable to get a transplant in time). It's always sad to see the name of someone you know (be it a survivor, or the deceased) in the paper. My sympathies. It's especially hard when you are dealing with the early stages of a flood. Our weather is so out of balance. I hope sharing some of your memories and challenges helped you draw strength for the hours ahead.

The girl who trains us for exercise class just lost her dad today, I met him once. It's till sad for her though. Nice to have such wonderful memories of your friend.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-48203039393074722062015-05-31T14:27:53.415-04:002015-05-31T14:27:53.415-04:00It's cold, it's wet and I just pumped out ...It's cold, it's wet and I just pumped out the wells for a third time.

It's funny how one person can change our lives. Life is short and too often we take things for granted because we get busy in our daily lives. Even if you don't go I think she would understand since your home has some flood issues. I hope it is not too severeBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.com
