Hey Marissa, I cried reading your post this morning. I am hoping the kids who are testing across the library from me aren't watching. That old familiar lump kept popping up in my throat as I read along, first when you talked about giving him the only gift you could at that point, then when you s

I'm so glad it went smoothly, and he was so at peace. You absolutely did the right thing. I know it'

Marissa, It just leaves such a big hole in your heart, I know. They do let you know. It is so hard to let them go, but to let him pass the way he did was a gift of kindess and caring. I am so glad he came to let you know. Love and hugs - I am crying with you. elizabeth On 3/28/07, Marissa
