    • Hug

      From zzzjoy Friday

      Sandy, Just a little hug to say I hope you are feeling more rested today. I know your life is so hard right now. I'm glad you have the ladies on DS who know just how you feel and what you are going through. It's really amazing at the comfort we can feel just having a safe place to come to and vent! Talk to you soon. Joy

      Sandy, thanks so much for the nice words. And, I wish the same for you
      and your own health issues , as well as your husbands. It's great to
      have this connection with nice people, like you !

    • Superhero Status

      From firelady Wednesday

      You are truly my super hero and when I grow up I want to be just like you !! LOL LOL
      As always I send you lots of love and "cyber" hugs to let you know that I am thinking of you and hoping that your day goes well. xoxo

    • Hug

      From Katty2 Tuesday

      Felt you needed a HUG to show my support after reading your journal. You really have two jobs. One is caregiving and the other is taking care of your needs. Both are full time jobs. I'd be tired too. Hope you can think of some way to get a break and have some down time, just for you. Please take care.

    • Prayer

      From beachbelle Tuesday

      thanks for hug. Sure wish we could give each other a REAL HUG! :)
