Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I've never been a real religious person but in the last couple years I was making peace with God and was even facing my own death thinking yes this won't be so bad. But I guess I was too smug, not enough humility or something because then instead of taking me he took my wife Vickie. I still don't know how I will bear it but realize somehow I will. I feel Vickie would want me to still take care of my health, participate in this support group and even travel like we had planned. I would like to thank the group for their prayers and good wishes, One very moving one came from Lady Vic. I also will never be able to thank Sher for being a buffer and notifying the group of events as they enfolded. She also kept the PNW friends informed and passed messages to me that I am sorry I was so bereft as to not be able to deal with all. For those who mailed cards another special thanks. I have been flooded with mail and got a big smile when I saw a postmark of Bangor, Maine and finally figured out who it was. Anyway thanks all and be talking to you again.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Steve, It's good to hear from you and once again I am sorry for your loss. You're correct of course that Vicky would want you to go on and take care of yourself and be happy knowing that you will see her again. Sometimes I know that's easier said than done isn't it? You remain in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Beth Age 48 Fibrotic NSIP 06/06 UCTD 07/08 Change everything. Love and Forgive Thanks for the support I've never been a real religious person but in the last couple years I was making peace with God and was even facing my own death thinking yes this won't be so bad.
