First let me say THANK YOU to all of the many folks in this group that has been support for me during the past 2 1/2 years. This is the first place I turned and found mountains of love during our fight. As some of you will remember I was a caregiver for my husband who had stage iv colon cancer. Ken lost his battle with the monster on Saturday May 27. \

I sit here and write to my friends on the morning of his funeral. It gives me strength and comfort from a place that shelters me and educates me and again I say Thank You.

I know Ken is in a much better place with no more pain. No more chemo and the awful side effects that he had. Just peace and love kinda like what I would find here each time I would come.

Thank you my dear friends. I will not abandon this place but I come with a different outlook. One of peace and love rather than fear.
God bless you all
Love
PJ

    PJ,

    I'm glad his pain is over. You and I were talking about how hard it is to watch them suffer and I was worried about you this weekend. I guess I know why God put you in my heart so strong now!
    He's in a better place watching over you and your family. Pain free!
    God bless you and email me if you need ANYTHING.
