This morning at 4:11 was one year since the love of my life became free of his hell. Or should I say our hell...
I don't even know what to think about that. The hell we went through, is more than I can believe actually. Honestly, how do any of us make it through that?
At 4:11, another kind of...
Mori Farrell, a friend from my local support group, gained her wings yesterday afternoon. She was my first PALS friend after my diagnosis. She lived on the beach in Flagler. We had lunches together, visited each other, and kept in touch by e-mail.
She was a lawyer and so brave. Her battle...

Our dear friend Wendy passed away last month.
She was a lovely, brave and generous woman. It was my honor and pleasure to meet her in person this spring.
Wendy is much missed by all of us here and of course by her family and friends. Deepest condolences to Chris and the rest of her...
