Journal Entry for November 8, 2009 Mood
Sunday, November 8, 2009 | A General Update story

 

 My name is Leslie. I have three daughters I gave birth to and raised and a fourth "daughter" who came in to our lives when she needed a place to live while still in high school and she became part of our family.

I have been married for 32 years to Gus a wonderful man and great dad!!

 

 Andrea my second born would have turned 27 on the 15th of December. She died on February 11th of this year. She was in a hospital in Monterey Mexico receiving medical treatment for a chronic pain condition, RSD. Her father and I were with her.

 

Nothing will ever be the same again.

    Hey Leslie...so glad you told us about your precious Andrea. I know how hard this is for you. Our lives are changed forever...but there are still joys in life for you. It may not seem possible, but there are. The first few years are so hard...and the firsts are so hard...but you will do it. Love and hugs...Karen
