- Thanx Kevin,
I"m sorry to hear about Lee! And that we share this mutual thing--WIDOWHOOD----I HATE that word! Wow--30 years---I thought I had won the prize--at 28 years & 8 months"
Wasn't long enough though---like the Bible says. You really DO become person--not that we weren't different too'! So I too live without a very important part of me!
And I too not only watched but shared in it too! What a horrible time that was!
And the passage of time, although the 'blow" lessons some at times it gets worse...like being without water...the longer...the worse you feel! The only GOOD I can see right now is that John(my husband) can walk @ talk @ is worshipping Jesus right NOW!
