Keri, I used to have a very best friend but I realized after I became sick

with cp she wasn't the friend I thought she was. We had so much fun together.

It broke my heart when I found that she didn't have time for a sick friend

just a well friend who could always be ready to go, play sports, etc. I grieved

for the loss of my long time friend but I grew also by knowing the true

meaning of a true friend. Does that make any sense? Shirley PS I want to be

more

eloquent but I don't have the words. My husband and my daughter fill my life

now. They are my true friends and they are the best.
