She said the look on her face was gut wrenching and that it was as though she had heard for the first time ever.<br /><br />Every time after that she just said that they would see her soon.<br /><br />She passed away in Oct. 2005. They are now together again.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10909390837115961404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-662043824968538425.post-82564116288878837072009-11-13T10:35:33.222-08:002009-11-13T10:35:33.222-08:00Your letter to your mom breaks my heart... :( Your...Your letter to your mom breaks my heart... :( Your gift to your brother is AWESOME.

Not good when you've got a lapband to lose weight and you're forgetting to eat. Or don't remember what, when or if you ate breakfast. Or forgetting to take meds.. Or forgetting that you've told that story so many times... Or forgetting that I've stressed not to buy us groceries or "stuff".... <br />That gift for your brother is perfect! I'm sure he'll love it!McValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00285808958951068897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-662043824968538425.post-83604400373200185072009-11-12T11:39:04.133-08:002009-11-12T11:39:04.133-08:00The letter to your mom is gut wrenching.
