Ladies 2

I have been a member since 2011, but have never posted.  I have come here mostly to understand and lift my spirit.  I have seen a few people pass, but no one has hurt as much as Ro.  I identified with her because we are the same age, both have USPC, were diagnosed the same time and I had the same high dose radiation as Ro at the same time.  I felt stronger because she was doing great until she got that darn cough.  I had a mild version it, but it only latest a couple of months.  I felt so bad for her, but thought she would turn it around and get better.  Feeling so sad and a little lost. I always looked for her posts and she could always cheer me up.  I have recurred twice now and can no longer be cured,  but have survived 5 years. I'll look to the rest of you to get me through the next five.  Peace to you Ro.

kathyannea, your post moved me to tears.  It is nice to 'meet' you and we need to pray for those we know and those who quietly visit.

Debrajo, thank you for

Debrajo, thank you for sharing.  I don't know what to say.  I can't really accept this yet, I can't accept that this disease is allowed to continue to take the most beautiful souls in the world away from us.  I know God has opened his arms and welcomed her in a world free of disease and that Jan was there to dance together in joy. 

In the event anyone wondered who our dear, sweet Roberta was, here was her picture with all of her beautiful flowers.  How fitting.

God bless you my friend.  "In peace and caring" much love.

Thank you for posting her picture. I have been away and come back once in awhile to see how everyone is doing. I was wishing I could remember her face and here she is. I have been on here on and off since 2009. Thank you again for letting me see Ro's sweet face.
