    Thank You All So Much!
    Thank you for your support through this long and painful ordeal.
    My mom is now at rest. She's no longer in pain. My brother took it very hard, and so did my sister. I'm doing OK. I guess it's because mom was here every day and I knew and saw what was happening, while my brother and sister lived so far from us.
    Today I'm going to climb to a beautiful summit, wit...

    Friday, September 11, 2009 | A Painful story

    I just wish people would stop spreading malice about me, and calling me a liar. They have no clue what I have gone through... yet are so mean to me... and they call themselves Christian? No real Christian I know, would ever behave the way they are... It is all just so sad.
