~Just For BILL~Our Dear Nicola's Husband
Bill I wanted to take a moment and thank you for continuing to come here, all while dealing with the loss of our Dear Angel, Nicola. There is no argument here when saying how deeply this Sweetheart changed my life just being able to love and learn from her. You have read her posts and although you know how much she loved you, the depth of that love was admirable to all. I am so lucky to have had her in my life and I feel I can speak for the other family members here too. She was brave as she trudged forward with her fights and we are so blessed to have had her touch our lives.
With the holidays around the corner I needed you to know YOU will be in our hearts & prayers shall flow just as the tears I shall cry remembering how she found her way deep into my heart and soul. Thanks for coming here to the place she called home, talking to the people she called family. My vigils for our Lost Warriors now include another loved one, my Nicola. She is watching over all of us and smiling down upon us with the brilliant smile that always spoke a thousands words.
My sister's here set up a 'Spa Fund' for me (a caregiver) to go relax at a spa out west. Nicola wanted to go so badly and really could not wait, she was so excited. Whenever she mentioned the spa her voice lit up. She wanted to match and challenge someone else's donation to me. She never really had the time to send it because she became so ill. But her generosity does not end there...
....See Bill, as a tribute to Nicola my Mighty Oak Ed is going to put in Nicola's donation with the strict rule that I shall pamper myself 'In Memory' of this Sweet Angel. He wants me to go to relax and the donation is to go to something enjoyable that we were going to do together. Although Nicola is busy watching over us all she is coming to the spa with me. I am going to do all the things she yearned for and while I do I promise you that she will be in my heart. I shall carry Nicola to the spa she was so desperate to visit, for I know that her memories will be the best therapy I could ever dream of.
So thanks Bill for coming here and for sharing your life with us. And Bill, I am honored to have loved her; some people travel a lifetime and never get the blessings of meeting a True Angel. Truely blessed>>Believe51
