MamaG I've been off the boards

I've been off the boards for quite awhile and was saddened to read about MamaG. She, along with so many others welcomed me, answered questions and was such a gift to us all with her sprit. But her spirt will live on in all of us. I've been off the boards not because I am doing well but because I have been overwhelmed with health issues, lost my job, lost my insurance etc.. but today I will think about MamaG and how she took joy in every milestone and cheered the rest of us on.

    I have also been off the boards - my computer was in the hospital all last week with a nasty virus. It's recovered now and home - so I just read about Mama G. What a special person and I know she'll be missed by all. Her positive attitude inspired me.

    Hugs, Sally

    And me... I took a long
    And me... I took a long break b/c of more health issues; had another major surgery in Dec - almost one year to the date of my mastectomy I had to have my colon resectioned. I come on the boards and check on you lovely people all the time and have been so distressed about losing so many of our sisters, I decided to stay in the background for a while... even though I have not contributed to the boards in a long time my thoughts and prayers are with you daily...

    Love,
    Dot

    PS - Mama G rest in peace...

    Me too
    I've also been off the boards for a while. Caught up in relocating to a different state and traveling back and forth for treatment. MamaG was always and inspiration to me with her support and encouragement. I am so saddened to hear of her passing, but as Debby said, she is a part of all of us and her spirit lives on. I will keep her family in my prayers.
