Thank you all!

Thank you all so much for your kind words and prayers and support. Right now I'm just trying to make it minute by minute. I went back to work yesterday, (I'd been out since Nikki was dx'ed with brain mets back in July) and now I'm just trying to find my way again. From the day Nikki and I got married, I thought only of her and how to make her happy, and when she was dx'ed with the cancer, we still had more good times and closeness than most. Years ago, I wrote a poem that I wish to share with you. "A Warrior's Prayer"
Father in Heaven
Spirit that moves in all things
Grant me the power and wisdom
to do what I must do
keep me strong
and guide me
to my true purpose.
Amen
After Nikki got sick, I thought back and remembered that poem and realized my prayer was answered. I was in the right place at the right time and my life's purpose was to take care of her and love her and I did it as good as I could. Our marriage was the best eight years of our lives. Now I need to find my "new" purpose. Thanks for everything and you guys all stay strong. Love, Bill
