  1. Thank you Don for keeping us updated on our precious Terri. My prayers are that she go painlessly and peacefully to Heaven and that Al and the rest of her family find strength in the days, months and years to come.

    God Bless you all,

    Jane

  2. Dear Katie and Rick,

    Thank you so much for you're commitment to this site and working so hard to get things straightened out and up again. I can only imagine how frustrating it was fir you both! Thank you also Katie and Peggy for the e mail updates on what was happening!!

    God Bless you ,

  3. Dear Carleen,

    My husband died a sudden death (car accident)so I had no time or thought to say I cant do this!! He was 29 and I was 28. We had 2 young Sons , one which was only 8 months old. We had been married 10 years. I had thought that if anything ever happened to my husband or children I couldnt survive and yet I did. I brought up those boys to young men that I am very proud of. It was a nightmare losing him but I knew God had him by the hand and he was in Heaven. That is what kept me sane!

    I am sorry for going into my life when I am writing about yours but I just wanted to tell you that you dont have the choice but to go on. Your faith and that of Keiths will assure you of where he is going when the Lord calls.

    I pray for you every night and look on this board especially for you and I pray for a miracle!

    Please know that you have this whole board praying for Keith and you and here to support you in any way we can.

    Please God Give them strength to go through what ever you have planned for them. Hold them tight in your arms and soothe them.

    We all love you Carleen and Keith and are sending up prayers all the time for the both of you.

    God Bless Them Dear Lord,

  4. Dear Beth,

    I know it makes you so sad to see his handwriting and to know he knew he wouldnt be there to reopen the pool again. I so much understand that. What should warm you're heart and put a smile on you're face is the fact that he still wanted to help and cared so much for you and others to help you even from beyond his life here on Earth.

    I recently threw away the living will that my Brother made out and put me as the first person to make any decisions if he was unable to. He had signed it and I read it over and knew that this particular signature and what it meant would always hurt me although somehow honor me that he loved me so much to put his life and decisions in my hands. After reading it, I thought to myself.. Will I ever need to read this again? I dont mean like you knowing now how to open the pool, things to do and people to call. You can know that by heart now or in years to come but that is something I would definantly keep. My Brother's was a need to do signature and I just looked at it, looked at his picture and ripped it up and a lot of peices and threw it away. I dont regret doing that as I will always know that I was in that position if the need ever came, which it didnt.

    Not living with my Brother ( he was married, unhappily) I have never found anything he has written and know that he probably didnt.

    Bill loved you enough to want to help you through setting up that pool that the two of you probably enjoyed a lot together. It must have been hard for him but however hard it was he did it and he did it for you Sweetheart. Cherish it!I just have this feeling that if he wrote that, you will find more.

    You are always in my prayers,

    God Bless You,

    Jane

  5. Dearest T Ann,

    It has been so long since I have posted. I have come and read but just have not been able to post for some reason. I couldnt not post to this as I also have always read anything you have written and followed you're journey, come to love and respect you in every way. My heart breaks that with all you have been through you are where you are today. I pray for hospice controlling you're pain and you having some really great quality time without pain now Terri. I pray that when it is you're time to leave us that you will go peacfully and painlessly as my Brother did. Straight into the arms of our Lord. Eternally healthy and happy. I also pray for a miracle for you Sweetie. Know that we all love and admire you.

    God Bless You,

    Jane

  6. Dear Eppie,

    What you described was so full of love and understanding that it took my breath away. Thank you so much for sharing all of this with us. You are a wonderful Daughter, there is no doubt there and he was a wonderful Dad. What you shared both in life and during his passing and services is I dare to say the most heartwarming account of ones life I have ever read. He is so very very proud of you ! God is with him now, he is free from this dreaded disease and not struggling anymore. He is truly at peace. Thank you again for letting all of us be a part of such a beautiful tribute. He will always be with you right there on you're shoulder loving you. Peace and comfort to you're entire family sweet Eppie.

    God Bless you all,

    Jane

  7. Hi again Peggy,

    Thank you for clearing it up for me. Yes, I did have a very severe depression for a very long time and even on medication was doing poorly. Yes, I left here, I returned, I left, I returned etc etc. It was too hard to be here yet I was drawn to people that I loved and cared about here and also to this whole community I joined so long ago. I may not know all of you but I understand all of you thats for sure! Sometimes I am still hurting inside and I tend to internalize that which has NOT helped me in the past. What HAS helped is opening up and letting it out be it to my hubby, here , to friends on the phone, to family far away on the phone ... It just doesnt matter as long as I keep talking!

    I am so much better today than I was and I do think that offers hope to others who think they will never feel better or know what to do with the sadness. That was my biggest problem, knowing what to do with the sadness. I understood, I accepted but I had this horrible sadness in me that I did not know how to channel. I got through it, I crawled through it but I did find the other end finally! I love my Brother (like Fire, as Pat would say) and I always will but I am able to be happy today and go on in life and accept that I will see him again only when my time here is through. I can wait for that, with God's promise... I KNOW his death is not the end!

    Thank you Peggy for all you have been to me and to the rest of you that have helped me so much and taken my hand and walked me just a little bit further one step at a time. I am honored to know you all and I love you all.

    God Bless you,

    Jane

  8. Hi Peggy,

    I hope I understood you're post. At first I thought you meant it would be ( if it became a forum) for widows and widowers. I felt left out like I wouldnt get the chance to talk with you all being Alan was my Brother.

    I know what you mean about not knowing what to say, I have been there sooooooooooooooooo many times. I never thought to just use a smily or an icon to express my feelings without words and to still let the person know I care. I can always come back and post if I find those words.

    Thank you Peggy for who you are and what you mean to all of us.

    God Bless you,

    Jane

  9. Welcome Tom,

    You have found the best web site on the net for support and a sense of a 2nd family. I am praying you find the best care out there and on you're journey you hang out with this great group of friends we have here that we call family.

    God Bless you,

    Jane

  10. Dearest peggy,

    I had already written to Linda and then I read this so I have done what you asked. I was so saddened reading you're farewell to all of us. I am still here( not as often) and it has been longer that my Brother has passed but I have also seen so many people here that need our support as we needed theirs. I have taken frequent breaks but have always returned because there is a draw here and it is the wonderful people we have come to love. YOU were the first person I came to love. You have always been there for me and I knew that and was comfoted by it. I do hope you always knew I was also here for you and still am.

    If you ever do pick up and really leave here which I really dont see, this is my e mail address..... so write it down now!!

    fall54@adelphia.net

    I love you Girlfriend and each and every one of us will get through this with the support and friendship of the others.

    God Bless you my friend,

    Jane

  11. Hi Beth,

    What a dissapointment to say the least. You, I am sure deserve more than them announcing it in an e mail.

    I can only imagine how it felt when you went to call Bill and realised you couldnt. You did though Beth as I believe he was right there with you and wanted to wrap his arms around you and comfort you as much as you needed that!!

    My hubby used to go back to Oklahoma once a year from NH to visit his family for 2 weeks and I have to tell you even those 2 weeks he was gone and I knew he was coming home it hurt to see others in public that were in love and huggimg each other or holding hands as I yearned for him so badly. I know that hurt or want in me was nothing compared to what you are feeling. One day at a time Beth.

    My beliefs are you will be together with him again and when you are it will be for eternity and it will be without sickness or hurt.

    You are in my prayers sweety.

    God Bless You,

    Jane

  12. Hi Linda,

    I also think the world of Peggy! She has always been there for me and for everyone else she could be in so many ways. What a special Sister you have and from reading you're post what a very special Sister she has.

    Thank you for really giving me a glimpse of a truly wonderful man. I am so sorry for you're loss as well as Peggy's of course.

    She has great faith and she will be alright. Don will be waiting for her when it is her turn to go home to Heaven with open arms. You too will see him again and this time eternally.

    Thank you so much for coming here and letting us get to know you as well.

    God Bless you all,

    Jane

  13. Diane,

    I am so sorry for you're families loss. Thankfully for all of you, you were all together as he passed. I do hope you're Daughter does not associate her Dad's death in a negative way always with her birthday. Prayers for strength and comfort for you're family at this terrible time of loss.

    God Bless you all,

    Jane

  14. Dear Sue,

    I have been away from the boards and was so very sorry to read this when I returned. Remember Friend he is in Heaven now and with God and he is healthy again. I pray for you're strngth and comfort to get through this terrible time.

    God Bless you Sue,

    Jane

  15. I pray for comfort and strength for Fay's family. She will be forever missed here. I believe Fay is in Heaven and in a cancer free body smiling down on all of us. We love you Fay!

    God bless,

    Jane

  16. Dearest Fay,

    I stay away and come back and I have read about you declining and have not been able to post to anyone about anything. You say this is you're last post and I have had to make myself reply to this. I so much respect you and always read you're comments on everything. I have no idea how to say goodbye to you . Godspeed you to Heaven Fay and I will see you there. I love you!

    God Bless our Dear Fay,

    Jane
