Thank you. For some reason I wanted to write about her yesterday. Maybe because I have been writing regularly for the first time since she died and the main person I'm writing about happens to be a woman that has lost so much herself.

I'm sorry about your grandmother and aunt,hug for you too. I'm blessed to have a good friend that indulges me almost as much as my mother did, really she came into my life at the right time. I think it would have been unbearable without her.
