Re: My last post
Hey Marco,
about ready to call it a day it is 10:14 PM here.... and sunrise- 7:14 AM where you are
Had a 3 1/2 hour drive back Los Angeles this morning, so I'm going to bed early
I spent the night in a hotel after a WunderGlo Cancer Fundraiser & Awards dinner
I was asked more than once what brought me to that meeting & I told them Hubby and friends like Y O U
I hope you wake from Sweet Dreams & have a fabulous day wrapped in Sunshine & Smiles
((BIG HUGS)))

Re: My last post
Good morning Marco, it's Sunday morning and we are getting ready for my son's football game. I've been checking the board constantly hoping to see an update from you. I hope and pray you are comfortable and pain free. Please know you're in our thoughts and prayers.

Re: My last post
Hello, sweet Marco.
I hope you are enjoying your day, perhaps with both parents and your beautiful fiancé. You are never out of my thoughts or embrace, and I love you very much. Wishing you a totally pain-free day, and hours that are scattered with smiles.
Love,
Bev

It would be nice to have that happy, smiling, Vibrant face looking at us once more
unless someone has a huge objection.... I'd rather have that my strongest memory
