Re: Pam P is an Angel

Pam was a wonderful woman. Many here chime she was a warrior woman and this is true but she was so much more than that. She was tenacious. Really staying on top of her medical situation. She had a love of life and as such, put herself through hell because she wanted to live for the cure. And she wanted to live for her family, friends and all that she loved and held dear to her heart and soul. She tried and tried hard. Many others would have given up so much sooner. I will miss her very much but I also wish her the peace that comes in passing into a better place where there is no pain and sickness. She is cured now and that is what she was striving for all these years. Alittle different than what she and we all hoped for her. There are many that were there to welcome her and she is not lonely or sad but glad and whole. I will pray for your family as this loss must be heartbreaking.
