Hi Samantha, Everything has been said. My best friend passed away nearly 3 years ago from this disease. I think of her every day however she keeps me going. I gained so much from her. Whenever I think about complaining about my predicament I remember her. She never complained and tried so hard to survive. I will never forget her courage and determination. To "survive" her passing, as I was distraught, I put all my feeling relating to her on paper in the form of a poem. It came so naturally. With the blessing of her family, I read this personal poem at her funeral - it received a round of applause as it totally was her. Her husband mounted the poem with a photo of my friend for me and it now hangs prominently in our casual entertaining area. So that's how I got through the roughest time of loss. Take care XLeonie
