If you sent me an email, called, posted, or anything and I didn't respond please know that I read and listened to everything. I didn't always respond to stuff but I did get everything and took it all to heart. It was just way to difficult to see all the love, dismay and other warm fuzzy stuff AND respond back. I can't say life is peachy or anything but I can say I am still plugging along. Its been like loosing an arm, you keep reaching out for things with that hand to suddenly find its not there. And you try to use it all the time, every day. I do a lot of cussing about that.
In the midst of that, everything everyone has expressed meant, and still means, the world to me.
I am here, alive and kicking still, and endeavoring to let everyone know just how grateful I am for all of you. Not just during this complete craphole of a time this year, but for all the other times.
For all the times you made her smile, laugh, cuss, and just plain ol' having friends and family to roll around with. This thing we created way back in EQ was something that could give joy and a sense of belonging to someone that was sick enough quite a bit of the time where this was one of the few places she could go and still be 'normal'.
I know many, many of you know how sick she was at times but I don't think most of you know just how important this little slice of society we created was to her. It allowed her to joke, laugh, and above everything else...participate in other peoples fun. She could be involved even if she was feeling like crap, she could help, support, and just be there with and for others.
Thats a pretty big deal.
Soo....I just wanted to say thank you, one and all, for being part of our family and making life brighter. I can't tell you how much it was worth to me.
