My only words of comfort is know that he is going to a much better place and over time your heart will heal but you will never forget and his spirit will never leave you and his loved ones!

This is just my heart speaking... so bear with me. I stopped that night, sat back and realized I want to get to know these people, Gag's story, your feelings. I let the words seep into me and touch me. <br />See, when my husband and I were married at 18, almost 22 years ago we didn't have a lot, but we had faith and we had each other. <br />Hell, there's still times we don't have what we want, but hey, the kids have what they need. That's all that counts. ; ) When I read your words, I could relate to the love you two have for each other. I know that love. <br />I don't need to know you personally, to have love for you and to keep you in my daily prayers. I am a wife, that makes me equipped to understand a tiny bit. I am a mother, so it helps me understand the feelings of parents. I in no way, know what you are going through, but I know that I care. <br />I am a child of God, so I believe that makes you both, my bro and sister. <br />There are times I drive in the car and think of how your day is going. I see a certain food at the restaurant and think of your family.<br />I send you love and appreciate that our paths have crossed.<br />xochristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15541888793748453425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825214276791029565.post-63490725101534276432009-06-27T16:00:48.770-07:002009-06-27T16:00:48.770-07:00Stacey thanks for commenting today... and don'...Stacey thanks for commenting today... and don't ever think you can ever say the wrong thing.... in these situations.... there is never the wrong thing to say....Mari Mansourianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003885344370531557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825214276791029565.post-16524160691854978672009-06-27T15:48:10.567-07:002009-06-27T15:48:10.567-07:00I always go to write a comment on your blog, and t...I always go to write a comment on your blog, and then have to stop myself, because I don't want to say the wrong thing. But I would like you to know that I am thinking of you guys lots and lots, and that last year my close family and friend unit went through the same thing you are experiencing, twice, and that life is a bitch, but it is beautiful at the same time. These kinds of rides are what remind us of what we have and what can't be taken from us.

Just love.<br /><br />Mari, I think there are many more words inside you, many stories, many observations, many truths still to share. And I have a sense that after reading your blog together, Gag is counting on you to one day get them up, out, and on paper. For you. For the boys. For him. <br /><br />And for something much bigger than the LA Times.Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661749227670056682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825214276791029565.post-15551312338186141142009-06-26T21:01:52.653-07:002009-06-26T21:01:52.653-07:00I'm so pleased that Gag is now really a part o...I'm so pleased that Gag is now really a part of your blog.

Your strength and your love for each other is overwhelming. I've only 'known' you a couple of weeks but your story stays with me every day, and your beautiful boys. <br /><br />I'm a cup half empty kind of person, I will admit that. And I moan and bitch and whine about everything and nothing. Actually, I dislike that about myself more than anything...especially as I have everything to be thankful about. And yet you and Gag have weathered so many storms together, cheerfully and with such strengh. <br /><br />I'm so glad Gag has heard all your posts, there is nothing to hide. But do carry on as you were...remember...you need to blog like nobody is reading. Don't censure yourself because Gag is going to hear your words...I'm sure you talked openly about things in a way you never would have, because of your blog. So let that continue. <br /><br />Hugs to you both from the UK, such a special couple xxxspudballoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12433420925135653667noreply@blogger.com
