What a horrible, sickening day on the Colon Club today.

[Bev G]

Just.that.

I am wishing everyone peace and love from the bottom of my heart.

Bev

[Guinevere]

I agree, Bev! I was thinking the same thing but also know it's part of being in a group like this. That said, it SUCKS!!

[Ashlee H.]

I find comfort that we all have the support of each other. Could you imagine going through this without the support? We get it. We cry together and do happy dances together. Some of us get miracles. I wish there were more miracles. I treasure all the friends I have made here. My heart aches missing those that are gone. But the pain would be so much worse if we didn't have each other to lean on.

[SMR]

Couldn't agree more wholeheartedly...

[lepperl]

It certainly is a bad day. It seems lately all I do is log on here and cry.
Ashlee- everything you said was right on. I couldn't agree more

Bev,

Agreed. It's so hard to read. I'm glad we're here for each other though. What a life-line this forum has been for me personally.

I'm so grateful to you awesome group of people.

What a terribly sad day.
I couldn't express it better than how Ashlee has said it -agreed, so agreed, each word.

[Kathryn in MN]

Agreed. I have been very sick and not on my computer for over 1 1/2 weeks, just accessing the Internet a little from my phone (way too hard to do this site on my phone). Today is the first time I've been able to log on here. My heart breaks reading all the losses.

[Badass]

Uh oh- just checking in now. Dread what awaits me. So glad you all are here.

[cecioboe]

Yes. But I keep checking the board throughout the day in hopes of good news. My heart is aching... Everyone here has helped us tremendously through Jim's battle and without you, we would havebeen lost. I keep praying for good health and good news for all who are in the trenches. And for those unable to climb out of those trenches, I pray for comfort and peace and a gentle remainder of life.

[KarMel]

Horrible day, yes, I agree.

But I have tears in my eyes, not for all the losses, but at the wonderful, marvelous, supportive, crazy, outlandish, beautiful, funny, intelligent, and loving family we have here. I cant imagine being on this journey without you.

[jgall]

Nicely said Ashlee and KarMel! I agree, Bev, tough day indeed. In fact...this has been a tough year on the board.

Julia

[lauragb]

Yes, a sad day. Seems like these days come in waves of frequency. Hard to take.
Peace to everyone.

We have had a hard year so far this year. But are friendships on this board have given me courage and strength to go on. I have learned so much from all of you. Can't tell you how. Much everyone friendship means to me. This is a great place to vent when things aren't. Going very well. Where else can a person swings chickens. Lots of love coming to all my cc members and fa
milies.
