You are a great looking couple. Hang tough and fight this disease. I'm sure that's what Bob would want you to do.

Tracy,
The picture of you two says it all. Thank you for sharing it. It brings you both closer to us, but also your pain. The woman on the bench was truly an angel. Just know that you are in our thoughts. I am not religious, but was in a Catholic church for a wedding on Saturday, and when we had a moment of silent prayer I prayed for you and your family.
Thinking of you!!!

look familiar
Hi Tracy, I am very sorry to hear about your husband. Two of my sisters became widows at ages 38 and 43. I am also from upsate NY. Saratoga Springs. You both look familiar. Any chance we know each other? Take care of yourself and stay strong. Sally
