Guest guest Posted August 23, 2002 Report Share Posted August 23, 2002 ((((Marge)))))) Thank you so much for your support and kind words. They were better than cool! :-) I feel much better today. As I mentioned earlier these hormones are making me more vulnerable and fragile right now so these things hurt more. It’s great to have you here with us Hugs, Heidi _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Marge, that is so sad to hear about your neighbor and her sons. I will certainly have Cheryl and Luke in my prayers. I can't even imagine the pain she must be going through. Love and hugs, Carol Re: [ ] Marge Hi Heidi, I'm glad you are feeling better...I had a shock today...a friend of mine who has 9 children had a real tragedy...yesterday her 6 year old got on the yard tractor and backed it out of the garage over his younger 4 year brother. Luke died at 10 last night. His 17 year old sister was in the yard and saw the whole thing while mom was inside. Such a neat family...I don't know what to say to them...I just keep thinking of the lasting impression and effect this will have on the whole family....I just don't knowwhat to say...so I am just trying to be available and stay in the background but nearby...I guess there is nothing to say....my friend, Cheryl just stares and tries to hug Luke,,she hasn't said more than 3 words to anyone...her husband is really trying and asked me to hang around this morning...but I don't know what to say or do...so I just picked up stuff around the house and answered the door...thanks for letting me share this....what a tragedy! marge [ ] Marge > ((((Marge)))))) > Thank you so much for your support and kind words.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Thanks for listening to my sadness for my friend Cheryl and the loss of her son...I spent some time with them today...they have lots of family around, what a tragedy...I'll be going back tomorrow to the funeral home...doesn't seem right at all to go to a funeral for a 4 year old...the family seems to be really holding together quite well under the circumstances.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Marge- You and that wonderful family are in my prayers. Just be there for them- they will only need look into eyes to know the compassion and care you feel. No words necessary. I am in Saginaw. Keri and are in Flint. And yes, we all will have to meet in Lansing sometime.Any other Michiganders here? Hugs and prayes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2002 Report Share Posted August 25, 2002 Hi , thanks for your thoughts regarding my friend and loss of her son...I spent most of my time with the 5 year old who was driving the yardman mower....he is pretty sullen...but still 5! there is lots of family around and folks from Cheryl's church...I plan to take for ice cream next week when the extended family has gone home and Cheryl has time to grieve...I think the whole family is still in shock. The funeral is Monday. Marge Re: [ ] Marge > Dearest Marge, > What a horrible tragedy to happen to any mother.
