A dear friend of mine here on DS, has sent me this wonderful poem...
In Memory of My Darling Friend CaitlinR.I.P.1962-2008The Last Time. If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word so I could play it back day after day. If I knew it would be the last time I could spare an extra minute or two, To stop and say "I love you" instead of assuming you KNOW I do. If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day... well I'm sure you will have so many more So I can just let this one slip away. For surely there's always tomorrow To make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything aright. There will always be another day to say our "I LOVE YOU'S", and certainly there is another chance to say our ANYTHING I CAN DO'S? But just in case I might be wrong and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget...(that) Tomorrow is not promised to anyone young or old alike, and today may be the last chance you get to hold ypour loved one tight. So if you are waiting for tomorrow why not do it today? for if tomorrow never comes you will surely regret the day. That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug,or a kiss and you were to busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. So hold you loved ones close today and whisper in their ear, tell them how much YOU LOVE THEM and that you will always hold them dear. Take time to say "I'm sorry" "please forgive me", "thank you" or "it's okay", and if tomorrow never comes You will have no regrets about today. I hope you like this poem and just know how much YOU MEAN TO ME and HOW MUCH I CARE ABOUT YOU.Thank you soo much Jodiblonde

Memories, thank God I have lots of those.
Went in my filling cabinet in the basement, and got a big bundle of emails from when I was on treatment, in 2003-2004 and started reading our messages that we wrote daily.
She was indeed my gardian Angel..
She would do her preaching at the end of each one, Drink water, eat, rest, Drink, eat, rest, every messages for a year.
What a darling women.
If only I could have helped her more, maybe I should have notice this coming.
It\'s hard to say.......
Nighty night everyone....Mck
