So sorry for your loss Raven. I hope you get to be with your friend soon so you can each give each other the comfort you must need to share. Amongst all the sadness and hurting I hope there is joy too as you remember happy times.

I so sorry to hear of your dear Nanny M passing. I had read your other discussion just yesterday about her and didn't get a chance to reply to it, so I'm sorry to hear about her now. My prayers are with you and for Nanny M's family.

Oh my gosh, I am SO sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain you must be feeling. My thoughts, prayers and love are with you. I know what its like not to be able to be present in a situation like this and the feeling of helplessness it envokes. As if things weren't hard enough, distance makes it all the more difficult. Sending you much love.

Hey Raven~ I'm so sorry about your friend's passing. I know that you are very upset right now and I do understand how difficult this is for you. But, as I had said to you only yesterday that she is in a better place and no longer suffering or in pain. I know that you would want that for her since you did love her so much. And I also know that you will be there for her family when you can. But, for now you can only grieve and take comfort with knowing that you are not alone in your thoughts and prayers. I do hope that you will be able to get through this loss in the best way possible. I will keep you and this family in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless. Your friend, Opal
