He has gotten so closed off to the world it is scary. He spends all day and night in his room on his computer playing games.

You were still smiling and happy. I know you gave it your best and you were willing to try anything to live. Maybe you knew it would not be much longer, I sure did not. ...

It was very hot and I noticed the crowds have gotten smaller, maybe due to the heat or maybe because we are losing so many family members. Our daughter made it there she is about 3 months pregnant and I ...

I am very sad but more mad then anything. How did something that should be clear to any medical professional be so overlooked that it took your life. Well I am so mad I am telling the world how I feel,...

So he put his arms around you and whispered " Come To Me". With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God ...

This is the first Easter in 32 years we have not been together and it has been a tough one. I cooked all your favorites only to realize you are not here to enjoy them. The kids ate and went about their business, ...
