Just heard a previous co worker whom I keep in touch with just lost her husband...she is moving back to WA from Nevada....

Before we were like all those people who just muttered platitudes...now we really do understand.

I am sorry for your friend's loss. She is lucky to have you.

I am here for Sandy...who will join our ranks before long...and although she tells me daily that they are ready for it...I know in my hear that no one is ever ready when it finally happens.

(((hugs)))

Your friend is so lucky to have to to help, and support her though this.

NO ONE undersatands what we feel and go through day by day except one who has been there.

I never knew what my mom went through with losing my dad until it happened to me. the things that I said that I thought were helpful I knew then were foolish.

I agree with yspyq45..I thought I was prepeared with what could happen with the transplant. then the heart attack....I WAS NOT AT ALL PREPARED.

HUGE HUGS to you for being there for a friend when you have so much on you!!! what a wonderful friend you are!
