    Peggy,

    I still have Mom's email address in my contacts and her number is on the caller ID. I know how those jabs are. Whenever I meet new people and they ask about my parents. I just want to cry and scream and say I lost my best friend. It is tough, tough tough......ggrrrrr.

    hang in there. We are all here.

    Bob,

    I love Fay. She was the rock that always keep me sane when Mom was sick and since she passed and I know she was the same to many. We all loved her. I will always remember her and hope that she taught me how to be brave and a better person.

    God Bless you.

    Thanks all! It is good to be back. I feel so bad about not being on in so long. Like I let Mom down, but I had a hard time in AZ for many reasons.. so I just needed some time to myself..Tonight I am sooooo sad about Fay...She used to write to my personal email and helped me so much when Mom died... I hope she knows I cared (a lot). :cry:

    Hey everyone, sorry I have been missing in action. I find being in AZ is really reminding me of Mom and I feel like I am just now greiving and it is harder than I thought to be here, but that being said, I haven't forgotten, I just needed a break.. and I am working a lot.

    OKAY now the IMPORTANT thing. In the New York Times today June 23, Thursday, there is an article on Lung Cancer on the front page.

    hugs to all.

    ABC Anchor Peter Jennings Has Lung Cancer

    Apr 5, 10:36 AM EST

    Associated Press

    Peter Jennings, the chief ABC News anchorman for more than 20 years, has been diagnosed with lung cancer and will begin outpatient treatment next week, the network said Tuesday.

    Jennings, 66, told ABC News staff members of his diagnosis Thursday morning and said he will continue to anchor the broadcast when he feels up to it as he begins chemotherapy.

    He last anchored "World News Tonight" Friday and was too ill to work Saturday during the network's special report on Pope John Paul II's death.

    "There will be good days and bad, which means some days I may be cranky and some days really cranky," he told ABC News employees in an e-mail.

    Charles Gibson, who's in Rome for the pope's funeral, and Elizabeth Vargas will be Jennings' primary substitutes on the evening news.

    Jennings is the last of the anchor troika that dominated broadcast network news divisions over the last two decades. NBC's Tom Brokaw stepped down last year and CBS's Dan Rather left the evening news last month.

    A former foreign correspondent based in Rome and London, the urbane Jennings and "World News Tonight" dominated the ratings during the late 1980s and early 1990s, before being surpassed by Brokaw. His broadcast is now a close second to NBC's "Nightly News" with Brian Williams.

    He has been feeling ill for the past several months. Following the tsunami in December, he did not travel to the stricken region, with ABC explaining at the time that he had an upper respiratory infection and was under doctor's orders not to travel. He did go to Iraq in January for the elections.

    Jennings is a former smoker who gave up the habit several years ago, the network said.

    He anchored ABC's evening newscast for two years in the 1960s, then joined a multi-anchor format in 1978. ABC abandoned the approach in 1983 after Frank Reynolds died of cancer and Jennings has been the sole anchor since then.

    Hi there,

    I was just going to reply to your post. It is really hard isn't it? It is also coming in waves for me. I am working a lot of hours so that helps to get my mind on other things, just so hard.

    hugs to you and thanks for your reply.

    Heather,

    good for you. I am planning to do a walk, but not until Nov 2006, so I have some time to organize it. You inspire me to do more. Also I have some media contacts and celebrity contacts, when I get back to the US I will work on it more. It is just hard from here.

    Good luck! I will support you for sure.

    Hi friends,

    I am just wondering, how do I do this? On the 27th (Easter) it will be a year since Mom passed and all this week I have been a mess and it is getting worse. It is unbearable to be a wake because I am so sad, and it is worse to be a sleep. This pain is so much that I can't breathe. Also I am moving to AZ, that is where she is from, it is her home, and the only job I could get is there, so I am so afraid of it. Does that make sense? Anyhow, I just don't know how I will get through this weekend. Also I am in Denmark still, and the entire studio is going away for like a week, so it makes it doubly hard.

    Sad, :cry::cry::cry::cry:
