It has been a very sad day for me. Late last night I lost a niece to the monster that is cancer. I am fighting the battle and surviving but at her young (36) age she could not. She has left behind an 8 year old son who will now be raised by his grandmother and aunt. Our whole family is coming together on Saturday - we are spread across the country, but are still close - so that we can support each other.

Sorry I am posting this sadness but I know everyone here is understanding.

Hugs to all
