The power to live is very strong. I have never been able to "fathom" why people commit suicide until - My daughter is a Clinical Psychologist and has "filled" me in as to why - so now it makes sense - nothing to do with the will to live. Gosh I am not making sense!!!! I saw the power to live in my dear friend. She fought BC for 5 years through a very tough battle. She would never give up until she was in hospital and her doctor said that she would never be able to go home. She was the epitomy of "Never Give up". It is now just 4 years since we lost her and I think of her every day. XLeonie
