    My heart goes out to you. Just being here talking about it shows your strength. Keep pushing! I pray for your strength today and each day to come.

    Good Morning my warrior friends. Today is full moon its a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the new Moon. It is an emotional time! I got motivated and inspired for today's Art therapy.

    Dearest Karen, if I were still in Calif. I would be
    on your doorstep to give you a great big hug.
    Knowing our beloved husbands aren’t with us
    Physically,I firmly believe our love ones are
    always with us spiritually.
    I’ve had signs from my Jack, since God called him
    home to Heaven. Each and every sign Jack’s given
    me, is to let me know he is helping God to watch
    over me.
    I try everyday to focus on his healthy years, of enjoying
    playing tennis with our daughter, deep sea fishing trips
    out of Oxnard, all those and more were very special,
    but I do believe, after he got PD, our favorite was staying
    home doing nothing just being together.
    whenever I’d ask, if I could get anything for him he would say,
    “As long as I have you, I have everything.”
    I am so thankful that I have gotten beyond painful memories
    of our last nine years, I know Jack is free from suffering,
    and enjoying all that God had waiting for him. Knowing we
    will be reunited, in God’s timing.
    Sending you love, hugs, prayers Karen, and
    to all our GIC “Family”
    Blessings,Patti

    Patti, good morning. I noticed you wrote
    your last message to Karen in the middle of
    the night. Hope you are feeling better, and
    can get your rest. I'm grateful that Linda &
    I flew to Ca.a year after we were married,
    in 1996, in Las Vegas. We rented a car, and
    saw San Francisco & L.A. I do remember
    Oxnard. We also went to Disneyland, &
    were like a couple kids, bc we didn't have
    our own. I try to be thankful to God that
    Linda & I had 25 years . But, as all TGW
    know,Mr. Grief can sucker punch us at
    any time. It just happened to me on the
    bus, just now. A woman bore a resemblance to Linda, & my eyes filled
    up with tears. I shook my grief off, exited
    the bus, & walked in the 70s sunshine.
    I hear that your weather is worse right
    now. Hope you can keep cool & dry. Lou

    Lou, I saw a man who looked just like Jack in the tire shop. I couldn't help staring and was about to go over and say something when my daughter pulled me away. He wore the same clothes, hat and sunglasses that were exactly like the ones he wore. It's eerie isn't it?

    Gary, just got your cane. I can't thank you
    enough. I want to write to you. You gave
    me your zip, so I know your town. Is 1124
    CR5 your PO box? Lou

    Beautiful work George!!! I love the colors. It reminds me of a bird’s view looking down on an ancient civilization. It gives a happy feeling. Gary

    as Deb says. Your daughter was right, in
    my opinion, Karen. Lou

    Bill, I didn't read your long post about
    reuniting with Janet, in the afterlife. until 11am today, my time, on the northern
    coast of Massachusetts. I listened to
    Stormy Monday, sung by Albert King, &
    cried bc we had a chance to see him in
    Harvard Sq. in Cambridge, Ma., but
    Linda was tired & we didn't go. I have to
    remember to be thankful for all the
    concerts we DID see, like B.B. King.
    Bonnie Raitt, Ray Charles, and Trisha
    Yearwood. Like Linda & Janet, both King
    & Charles are no longer with us physically,
    but will ways be in our soul. I wish we
    could've seen Bernadine's soulmate. Kenn,
    play the blues, & could've seen you perform, as well. ,Lou
