Thank you for the good wishes. This is my first Christmas without Nick. This time of year is hard without the holidays as this is the time of year Nick's cancer had suddenly returned and you could see him dwindle a little more each day.
Your good wishes and gratly appreciated. Warm hugs to you and wishes for peace to you.

My first but last year, Wayne was in a coma, so technically, my 2nd.
Thanks for the good thoughts. Merry Christmas to you, too. I sincerely hope 2012 is a better year and that we all find acceptance and peace.
God bless you,
Claire
