Jade, even though we've never met, I feel I have known you forever. In your profile you talk of surgery as a re-birth, a "new life"...it was, unfortunately not with us. I can help crying for your family and friends, to have lost such a wonderful person. I know that where you are you are finally happy, but to those of us left behind, we cry because you are gone. Heaven is a better place now that you are there with the other angles. I got my surgery date yesterday but I am so scared. I know that if I don't make it, I will be fine with God, but what of my family. That is why I am so scared. Jade, I'll be praying for your loved ones....I hope you are happy and healthy where-ever you are.--Love Louise C
