She had much sadness the last few years not only w/having cancer her youngest son was in a horrible car accident about 6 or 7 years ago & is in pitaful shape. he has brain damage & is a paraplelegic [may have spelled that wrong]. she has an older son that has had drug problems for years so she had much sadness from her children & i felt so very sorry about that.HER NAME WAS ELENOR-------

What a sad life your friend has gone through. I believe all those bad experiences and the fatal disease she acquired gave her enough reasons to find full dependence on God. If she did, she is certainly spending a much, much better life now with her Creator. May she truly rest in peace!

I am so sorry to hear this news about your friend anti, this is vey sad. All I can say is that there is no sorrow where she is now or pain. If there was they wouldn't call it heaven. We are on this earth for just a short time and eternity is for ever. She has entered life as it is meant to be. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Just got back modem so had to delete most messages. How is Anne? Please give her my best wishes.

Oh that's really a sad case to know. What an innocent person, to have to say goodbye to this beautiful world in a young age. Perhaps, it is her destiny, everything is fated. Perhaps, this may also a good thing for her to leave, rather to continue suffer for the rest of her life. May she will rest in peace and be blessed.

Reading about your friend's life saddens be even though I havn't met her. I can just imagine my mother if it was her in her shoes. I would never be able to live knowing that I have caused her pain in anyway. I pray for Eleanor that may she rest in peace and that she will be in a better place. I also pray for her family especially her children that they may find their paths and greatness in this lifetime. I just feel bad that a nice person as your friend had to go through so mnay hurdles in life and suffer from cancer at the same time. She must be one tough lady and I admire her courage and strength.

Hey Jo, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend! Bless her heart! Now she's at peace and not hurting anymore whether it's inside or out. Um.... wanted to tell you that I've not been feeling like myself lately and have taken a break from mylot. Nothing comes to mind that I want to say because I think I'm just plain overloaded and mindless right now. Don't worry, I'll still be around but not as much till I get my head on straight again. HUGS DEAR FRIEND!!

I'm sorry. Maybe, your friend is happy in heaven right now. I just can't remember if I read or watched it that problems in life leads to sickness. I don't know why is it so hard to be happy and just have a simpe life with good husband and obedient kids.

Hi antiquelady! My sympathy goes out to you in the loss of Elenor. I will be praying for you and her family. You've had one thing right after another to happen to you here lately, haven't you? I'm still praying for you, your son, and anniefannie. How is your son doing, btw? You said that he was supposed to get news today. Kathy.

GOOD morning Kathy, Thank u so much.I really thank u for the prayers. U know it started last year when i lost both my parents & my aunt & it just seems to keep on. T.J. had the echo yesterday . the lady that did it of course can't tell him anything so he'll have to wait till next week when the dr. has time to study all the tests they did. I know if it was something serious that showed up they would have surely put him in the hospital or whatever so that makes me feel a little better but am anxious to hear the results of all the tests. I have about worried myself sick this week. Thanks for your kindness. Have a great 4th.
