SDianneB Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 When I first found this forum, one of the first people I became intrigued with was Lucie -- and Don, of course. I found myself eagerly looking for posts from them, no matter what the topic. Reading about Lucie and her treatment was such an inspiration, and Don is so honest and forthcoming when he shares things with us. I'm posting this here in the "Inspiration" section, because I just wanted Lucie to know what an inspiration she has become to me, and probably many others. You may know that I'm going through some struggles right now, not the kind that mean a decline in health, but just with docs and tests and the like. You know what makes me feel better in an instant? Thinking about Lucie and the battles she has fought, and her courage. And, of course, as always, her loving Don by her side. I read somewhere the other day a quote that unfortunately I can't remember verbatim or cite the author, but it was about courage being the one virtue a person must have before s/he can have any other virtues. That without courage, none of the other virtues are possible. I thought that fit what I know of Lucie to a tee - that she has courage as her basis for her continuing battles, and is able to stay on top of the situation and live her life the way she wants. Bravo, dear lady, and your beloved Don. You are so appreciated and admired, and I just wanted you both to know that. Di Quote
