    We are here
    I am sorry you are having such a hard time. It is hard to be strong when things seem to keep getting you down. I know that just writing in these chat rooms and reading the responses help me a little. I don't know what to say other than there are lots of people here who can assist in maybe a little encouragement. I lost my husband 5 months ago tomorrow and I don't think I will ever be the same. We all have issues we are dealing with but just knowing others are out there and can help is very encouraging. Please try and be strong and know we are here for you. Haley

    Well....
    I'm sorry you're going through this. I feel like you are the voice of my mom right now, who can't really talk anymore and is barely conscious. I know it's hard when you feel so alone, and am glad you at least have us here as an outlet for expression. I have wondered how you've been doing. You are a strong person; only a strong person will fight for their lives every day, even though most people would baulk at your struggle. I respect your will to survive, but Minnie dear, what is still keeping you here on Earth? What do you still have to accomplish? If you truly feel like you have unfinished business, tell those people who are still in your life what you need to be at peace while you still can do so. Only then will the struggle become just another step on the journey, and your soul's feet lighter and more willing to take the next step. Prayers for you dear Minnie.
