One year ago today, I lost my older brother to gallbladder cancer. This boardie family was so awesome, you really helped me through a very tough time. Thank you all again for all of your prayers, thoughts and being there. If anyone ever wonders if we are people who just post messages, you will find that the opposite is true, we are all here for each other. I've never found another place like this and I've never met any of you. I hope to one day.
Bless you all.
NegrilIrene I remember that and everyone being there for you. Hope you are doing well and that your Dad is ok too.

suzengrace sorry you went through that (((hugs))) to you and NegrilIrene
Thank you Angel, suzengrace.
Angel, I'm doing ok, planning on being in Negril Thanksgiving week, so that will be very healing. My dad is doing pretty good, wow, thank you for remembering. Thank you for the hugs.
suzengrace, I am so very sorry about your brother. Please keep him in your heart. I have dealt with depression before, my prayers go out to you and your family. How are you doing? Thank you for the hug, I hug you too. I have a lot of memories that I think of everyday. (((hugs))).
NegrilIrene and SuzenGrace,
So sorry for both your losses.
May you be comforted by beautiful memories of your loved ones.
So sorry for your loss. May you find healing and joy on your next reach.
Thank you Eden, cassidygirl.
My brother was going to come with me on my next trip, it would have been his first time. I know he'll be there with me.
How is his son doing? Yes your brother will be with you in spirit. And nice to hear your Dad is doing well.
NegrilIrene and Suzangrace - it is always hard to lose a loved one, no matter why. My heartfelt sympathies to you. Let the memories keep you grounded. Life is memories. We all have memories of yesterday, and that was 32 minutes ago! I beleive deep in my being that there is a Higher Power, and a life after death here. I KNOW my parents and my best friend are guiding myself and my family from wherever they are (and doing a good job of it, too, thanks!). Be thankful for the time you had, and for the friends you found when you needed them the most. How surprising is life! The hurt, the feeling of loss, will never go away. But the joy of their having been a part of your life? It will never go away. Let that feeling glow!
