(((((((((((((wmd & donna))))))))) I've never posted in this before as breast cancer is a very hard subject for me. I realize that has been selfish and I want to apologize. I wish I would have pushed that fear and sadness aside to support you sooner. Please know that I am here and I am sending my love, prayers and support to you.

You are always in my thoughts and heart.

I am so sorry it has come to this place in your journey with Donna. I have no words that could comfort you or lift you up. Please just know I am thinking of you and acknowledging all you are going through.

(((((WMD)))))) I never knew this thread was here until now. I have read all though here and my heart is breaking for you my friend.

Your love and committed heart shine throughout every post in this thread. There is never a right thing to say at times like this. Just know that I love you and I will be praying for you. And I know that Donna knew while she was here and still knows now just how much you love her. I believe with everything in me that love is something that never dies. It is the one thing that we can take with us!

Much love to you my friend

All I can say is that you are in my thoughts and you are such a strong and brave person. I admire how you are coping, although it may not feel that way.

Keep going along, matey.

dear wmd,

i just learned today what you and donna have been going through. i am so sorry for the suffering you both endure. i know how weak it feels to watch the loved one slip toward the end. heartbreak beyond belief.

you, though, have given donna what my dad could not give my mom. you have been with her during this long journey - a gift beyond price. my dad was in the home but not with her in the journey. she was stage 4 when it was diagnosed and he did not grasp the meaning.

if i should ever have to take this same journey i would not ask for a superhero, just a faithful man who would stick it out with me until the journey was over in one way or the other. you have given donna your presence; that is huge.

i prayed for my mom to end quickly and not to hurt too badly, God answered my prayer. i will pray that God will do what is best for donna and you. no words are satisfying when the needs are so vast, God Bless You Both - and He will!

(((((((((((((((((WMD & Donna)))))))))))))))),

I am so sorry that all this time, I have not been aware of the struggles (not a strong enough word to express it) you have been going through.

I alway knew from your posts that you have a lot of wisdom & kindness that is "YOU". After reading through this thread to understand what you have been going through, it has truly allowed me to see what a wonderful caring & loving person you are. You have given beyond just the being there for her......you have protected her from herself & from others that were there to harm you both. Donna has been blessed to have a B/F that cared for her better than some husband care for their wives (speaking from experience). It sounds as though she has come to that realization at this point.....sad that it takes something so tragic to provide that understanding.

I know the grief feelings you are going through as I went through if in 2005 with my Mother......being the only family left to care for her, many horrible things went wrong at the end because the Dr's weren't honest with her about the cancer spreading & surgeon constantly told her he "got it all" in the surgery & refused to talk to me about what was going on with my Mother when I tried to talk with him (definitely a jerk who disrespected women & never should have been a gynecological oncologist). I know for me, going through the trauma with my Mother caused me to need hospitalization in order to recover from the extreme weight loss the stress caused as I tried to protect my Mother from the bad things that were happening around us.....subtle things that I thought I saw, but things like that just don't happen to normal people so no one listened to what I was saying.

I know that the caring love & being there at this point for Donna is so important.....it is wonderful that you have put aside what she was going through.......seems as though it was her way of fighting what was happening to her & her way of trying to avoid reality by giving something other than the cancer to focus on (that being de-tox). It is sad how the choices we make can end up having such a negative consequence, but one never knows if another choice would have made any difference.

I know that over this last week & going through the ice storm we had here in KY, God has revealed himself to me in ways I never would have believed before this through prayer.......so know that I will be praying for you & Donna......that you will have the strength to care for yourself & Donna & to hold up emotionally during this time.....& that Donna will not suffer pain more than she can endure & that she will feel a peace that will also allow her to let you know how much you have meant to her over all these years.

You are a very special person in your heart.....you have very deep feelings & emotions that are rare to find in anyone.....I am sure that you will not allow what you have gone through to change that.....hold onto yourself & know that you are special. I know it will take a huge amount of strength even more from this point......you will make it through I am sure with deep emotional hurt that comes from being able to love & care beyond the superficial level....but that is what makes you special.

Know that I care & am praying for you both, (tears filling my eyes & running down my face while writing this post),

Dear WMD~

Sending You Healing Thoughts & Prayers

to Soothe your Grieving Heart

Life reveals goodness and hope. You are surrounded with people who love and care about you in this very moment. There are many who enjoy you and need you. There are relationships to nuture. There's a world that needs your gifts and talents. And there is good in your life even in this darkest moment whether is a day of sunshine, a night of uninterrupted sleep, a beautiful crisp winter morning. It might help to simply say to yourself in a quiet voice: "I do have good things in my life."

Love You,
Marian

WMD......I just found this. Its a good thing my eyes don't work so I got a talking computer because I couldn't see through the tears anyway. Please give Donna a hug for me and give yourself one from me too. I'm at a total loss right now....I won't go away for weeks again. Back to morning coffee when you can. Love you WMD. You and Donna are in my prayers.

((((((((((wmd & Donna)))))))))))

Donna passed away at 12:13am.

corky hon I am so sorry hon. I will be there as soon as I can hon.

May Solace Come Quickly!!!

((((((((((wmd)))))))) This is so inadequate to say what I am feeling. I pray that as you mourn donna you allow your memories to comfort you. That sounds so inadequate. I'm sorry.

wmd
Sorry for your loss it tears at your heart when you have lost someone in such a way . We lost someone last year and just to know that she has no more pain is a comfort of sorts ( it may not be the right way to describe what I felt and still feel today) but we saw how it spreads and fast

I just hope that you have friends and people who love you around you now in your hour of need.
I hope this little bit I can do for you is enough and I would be honored to put you on my friends list for the future

I am so sorry to hear about Donna - please take care of you

You are both in my prayers , thinking of you

JUst read this thread- So sorry to hear of Donna's passing.
We, the Constellation, are here. no words. just comforting energy to your soul
