Before Allen dies, he told me that his Dad was coming to get him. I didn't feel anything bu I believe that he came. I asked Allen to somehow let me know that he made it to heaven. He said he would do his best. He hasn't sent me any messages, yet. I still hope that he will.

Joni, I am here for you. I can send you my phone number, if talking would help. Hugs to you. We can get through this together!

Brooksea, Can you share the recipe for the orange cinnamon rolls? My mouth is watering just thinking of them. I can share my recipe for shortbread cookies. They are like Lorna Doones, only better! I check in here fairly often but don't post. Allen loved this place and all of you ladies...

Toto, You and your family will be in my prayers. Hugs to you!

Becky, Congratulations on the arrival of your wee one. I am happy for you. I went out to the cemetery today. I have had live flowers on the grave but they die very quickly in the heat here. I made an arrangement of silk flowers. I used white and pink roses like the ones that I carried when...

Helen, Allen loved you and all of his tea ladies. Thanks to all of you for your love and moral support to him. Your conversations kept him going some days. You were family to him when I was too tired to be any good to him. Thank you all! Robin

Last night at 10:30pm, Allen died. He became very short of breath and went quickly. Please keep us all in your prayers. I will post again when I can give you info about his service. I believe he and Al are together in heaven. I did not intend to mislead you all with my post yesterday. He...

At about 10:30pm last night, Allen died. He became very short of breath about 7pm and went quickly. Please keep us in your prayers.

My name is Robin. I am Allen's wife and am happy to give updates. Allen's sons had been coming to live with us for a month at a time to provide his care. They helped us for 2 1/2 years. With their help, I was able to work full time and to keep us insured. Earlier this month, I was...

Dear Joel, Is there any way that Christine could have a short break from your care? Our local ALSA chapter provides some funds for respite care. I am only a CALS so I do not know how hard it is to be the person who needs the care. I can tell you, though, how hard it is to give when my own...

Let's see if I am able to send a PM.
