I see. That's great that you are good enough friends that she understands and forgives. It's wonderful to have a friend like that. I miss having a best friend. My first best friend in all the universe died suddenly 20 years ago.

It took me a long time to trust anyone else that much 'cause in the back of my mind I kept thinking what if they die on me again. (silly huh?) So finally 8 years ago, I make a great new friend and we bonded instantly and bared our souls with each other and were soooo close. Last April she died suddenly. So, gals, let that be a lesson to you. Don't get too close to Tink's Mom.
JK, but man that just plain isn't fair is it? So, everyone, be good to the ones you love. You don't know how long you'll have them.
