I'm home again, but not whole yet

Aloha sweet sister......I saw your pretty picture and thought, oh goodie.....some Rusty adventures! Then I read your sad tale and felt so moved by your sharing something so deeply personal with us. The endings of life as well as the beginnings of life are so monumental.....and deeply touch us all in different ways. Your mother gave us the gift of YOU, and you were HER gift.

Thank you for sharing.....and feel the TLC coming to you from your OFF family, please.

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen

Thanks for the comforting words, Karen. You may look for the Rusty adventures. I wait eagerly for the Hawaiian breezes that float up thru my computer screen when you post.

rusty i am very sorry to hear of your mother's passing. take care of you now.

Margo-I truly appreciate your sympathy and kind words. I am trying to get back on the stick for my own health. Hospital and friends of my mom food and extreme stress has left me with a 15 pound weight gain...my first in 4 years! So I'm back on my treadmill and cutting down my portions, augmented with protein drinks. It's not as easy without my pouch magis, but I'll make it...I'm practically naked without my tiny clothes!

Oh Hon I am so sorry to hear of your Moms passing. She sounds like she was a very brave lady. I am so glad you got the opportunity to have time to talk and say good-by to her. Warm hugs

Thanks so much, Jean. I so appreciate your warm thoughts and hugs. You seem to frequently be there for me when I'm not having such a hot time. You are very lovely and caring.
