Ladies I must share with you how wonderful my best friend is. My best friend was always recoginzed as one of the good guys. He would give the shirt of his back to any one in need. He held my head when I couldn't during chemo. He did his best to suffer with me, he wasn't good at that, though tried to out do me with shingles on his forhead. Yes, my husband of 37 years died suddendly early Monday morning. We were sitting in bed talking over the past, present, and future. He was sitting on the side of the bed petting the dog lying next to him and carring on a conversation. The next thing I knew his was lying on his back and gone, just gone. The past day or two, I have lost track of time have been busy, tearful, full of phone calls, dealing with Mortuary, having a very close friend come to hold my hand at the Mortuary. As we all get through the traumas of life as I will work through the quiet of our home. I will be back, eventually.

    It is never easy to lose someone and it surely must be a lot harder when it is so unexpected.
    You have my deepest sympathy. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.

    Oh Kathryn, my heart is breaking for you
    I will never forget your kindness when I was having trouble with my second course of chemo. I wish that there were words to express how I feel for you. If you feel something odd, it's just me slipping my hand in yours as you did for me.

    Sending prayers for you and your best friend.
