Oh Sheila, my heart goes out to you and I am so sorry for your friend's loss. I know how upsetting this is for you and I hope your despair is short lived. Please do not lose help and faith. Keep your positive spirit going as you almost always have in the past. Sending extra prayers your way. Call if you need someone to talk to. I think you have my number from previous contact, if not just email me.
Rina

Jasmine (my daughter) had back surgery at Rush in Chicago she was discharged and came home late Thursday evening. She is still very sore but this is to be expected. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.

Glad to hear surgery went fine.

It is hard to lose those we love. So sorry. Hoping they can figure out a way to banish this disease. Bev

Smile So sorry Sheila

It is so difficult to hear about the lost of yet another sister. My condolences to her family and to you who knew her well.

My prayers for you Sheila for you mom, your litle granddaughter (which must be very difficult for you), and of course my friend for you to stay strong.

Good luck with your treatment tomorrow and hope all goes well for you.
