,

I knew you would write when you had something you wanted to share.

Your words are always advantageous. I love so many people I have

come to know on this board, but I have to say you are right at the

top the list of people who have given me valuable lessons that I

will hold close to my heart forever. I have learned so much from

you and your honesty thru this journey and I am forever greatful for

your sharing w/ me, w/ us. I want you to continue on in your

journey on your terms and continue to be true to yourself. What a

wonderful example you are, what a beautiful picture I have had of

you and Tim holding hands and being in love in sickness and in

health. You have been your own advocate and the rock in your

family. I LOVE YOU and thank you for allowing me on your journey.

Words fail to sum up my gratitude and appreciation.

With LOVE,

Kerry

> Hello everyone

> I know it has been a very long time since I have posted anything.

I want to thank all of you that have emailed me personally to ask

about me. I have thought about posting again but feel that nothing

I say now would be advantageous to anyone at this time.

> I have been told that my life expectancy is limited not to around

four months. But you guys know that I have beat all the odds for

many years. Fathers Day was also my birthday. I was told that I

would never live that long....but I did. Granted, my quality of

life now is not so good but I am alive. The doctors have advised me

to procure Hospice services immediately, as Hospice doctos can

prescribe medecines that regular doctors cannot prescribe but most

of you know how I feel about Hospice, so I have not contacted them.

This has been a long journey. I have learned alot about myself and

others along the way. I have experienced many not so good things

but I have to admit that some good things have come about because of

my illness. I will not complain and I refuse to be afraid anymore.

I will accept death now and will be thankful for the good times I

have had. Thankful for the time given to me, time for aiding in the

healing of my family estrangements. Time given to me to let people

know I love them and to ask forgiveness for times I have hurt them.

> This board has been good for me. I have made good friends. You

have helped me through some troubling times.

> I want to thank all of you that have been a part of my life for so

long and have seen me through all the troubling times.

> My husband will post of my death.

> Thank you again for all your care and support.
