cathy Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 I just wanted to say I have been thinking of those who have lost their true loves, and hope today will bring happy memories to you instead of sad and keep your hearts warm all day. My dad was my moms only love, so I know how hard this is for all of you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindy RN Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 I agree-Valentines Day is a time to remember those who have gone ahead. Focus on the good memories. Thinking of you all. Love Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peggy Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Thanks Cathy. Yes, this day is harder than many others and I try to just ignore it. I have 3 roses that my husband went and got for me on the last Valentine's Day of his life, and while he was undergoing chemotherapy. I dried them and kept them. I wish that happy memories of past Valentine's Days could comfort me, but instead they cause me only great pain and a reminder of all that has been lost. I'm sorry to be a downer.

Guest Ada's Jim Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Thanks Cathy, Today was a little sad for me - I have been doing OK, but there are ups and downs. Special days like Ada's birthday and Valintines day seem a little tougher. I check in on the board often - I don't have much to add - there is so much support for each other out there. I know Ada would want me to keep in touch - she loved everyone out there so much. During her 2 + year battle the board was a great support for her. My prayers and thoughts continue to go out to everyone. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathy Posted February 15, 2004 Author Share Posted February 15, 2004 Jim and Peggy, I'm sorry I know its hard. I just talked to my mom its been a rough week for her as well.. I hate cancer and what it has done to so many beautiful people. The day will be over soon and maybe the pain will subside a bit... Those bad days seem to hit like a ton of bricks...... I think of you often Jim and hope you are beginning to heal.. I still have the poem that your beautiful Ada sent me, its on my fridge next to my dads picture and will be there forever. I tell people all about Ada when they read it...Her words are so comforting, they really are.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
