I have just lost my best friend.. I mentioned a few weeks ago my best friend..through thick n thin was diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer.

She was undergoing radiation treatment and was going to start chemo in a week or so................I got a phone call this am. She passed away last night at 9:30pm

I will be leaving Saturday to fly back for her services and returning the following Saturday. I have not been back to Cleveland for about 16 years.

I got a wonderful reservation clerk who has made the arrangements for me, and also wheel chair and assistance since I will be traveling alone and will have to make a connection from Seattle to Chicago and then to Cleveland.

I have flown since my stroke but with my husband, he will not be able to make this trip with me. My sister and her family are there also, so will also get to see my family and to visit my sons grave.

I am thanking God that Carol did not have to suffer with this for a long time...I was not ready for her to go..but I understand...

Iwas looking at pictures of the two of us yesterday from her last visit here...

My prayers for her have been that she would not have to suffer, I will miss her Greatly, but know she is at peace and without pain. Someday we will be together again. she is now united with her son and husband and my son, I picture a happy reunion....
