To Everyone Who Responded: Thank you all so very much. Yes, Arlene is in a much better place. Her daughter sent me an email this morning of the words to the songs used during the slide presentation at her memorial service last Friday as well as some photos. Arlene always had such a beautiful smile on her face even though she was probably suffering most of the time. Her motto for living was used as the theme......."Don't worry about tomorrow, God is already there" I think that ought to sum it up for all of us, don't you? She was a very brave & gracious woman and had a beautiful family. My prayers now are for them that God will comfort them during this time of grief.
I want to congratulate the one who's been surviving eight years now with CML, six of those "philly free"! You are an inspiration to all of us living with this disease. God bless each & everyone of us to keep on keeping on with the fight & the daily struggle. May we have more good days than bad. Lets fill our days with what makes us happy, such as grandchildren for those of us who have them......with good friends to laugh with......after all, laughter is the best medicine I've been told so often........with helping others less fortunate & they are many..........or whatever it is that lifts our spirits. It might be here encouraging others, etc. Life is way too short to spend it "down in the pits"! So, get up and get busy! Keep Looking Up, Suzieq --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
