Hey everyone Terre, sorry you received sad news today. And Charles, I know exactly what you mean...I think I'm down to counting on my fingers the number of old friends left, so I really rejoice when one of them pulls through a hospital stay in order to hang in there a little longer. It's tough when you know them so well...for so many years....I still see things on TV and think I have to make note of that to tell Dana the next time I talk to her....and she's gone. My head knows it, but the heart holds on for a little while longer, especially when the person was zany and full of life. It's part of the grief cycle...which can get relentlessly oppressive the older one gets. We either stay behind or pass on....only two options....so I try to make the best of the time I have here. Humor helps me keep perspective while I'm still here, and I hope I can leave behind a few laughs when it's my turn to go
