Thanks, Firehair. It was pretty rough on her toward the end there, and I'm just glad that she's through it now, and on her way over. I have wonderful images of the Other Side, partly due to a certain tv show you made have heard of, *S*, and I like to think of her with the rest of her family and friends, most of whom were waiting for her there already. Thanks for being there.

Thanks, Kestrel. And thank you, too, for the e-mail. It means a lot to me having my xeniteFriends around me at a time like this. You guys understand things that other folks just don't. And I thank you sincerely and most warmly for being there for me now. Really means so much. It's so good to see you here, it's been tooooo long. Thanks for going out of your way to come over. bama *S**S*

Thanks, G.Staff. I always turn to pen and paper,
and my guitar during a crisis. Today seemed crisis
enough, and this poem popped out right after I got
back from the nursing home where she had died. Just
had to wait for an opportunity to bring it to the
forum. She never read any of my poems. Somehow this
seemed a fitting way to show my respect, though.
Thanks again for stopping by and for your very
kind words. Take care. bama *S*

Thanks, chessie. We haven't met before, I think, and I do want to thank you for taking the time to read and to reply to her tribute. I reeeeally do appreciate the way xenites rise to the aid of one of their mates in their time of need. *S* Thank you for your warm thoughts and words, and especially for your prayers. Hope to see you again. bama *S*

Thanks, Doc. You know I really hesitated to post her
tribute, got to thinking as I was doin' it, should I?
How will it be taken? but I just took a very deep breath
and DID it. And I've been very glad, I needed this support,
this overwhelming show of affection and care, and I'm not
sorry now that I wrote it and posted it. Maybe, with all
the rough spots and errors, it will still touch someone
who needs it, the way I needed it, the way I needed you
guys. I read your ee and replied while ago, then came
back over here and here you were! Thanks doc, for
*everything.* I mean it, thank you so very much.
Well, I've had less than 3 hrs. sleep since Tuesday morning
and have got to go to bed. Thanks again, Doc. And I gladly
accept all the hugs you have to give. *S* bama

My mom had been talking with her older sister and other folks who had beeeeen dead for a long time, and I really do think she was received by those she loved into the next world. Not really a sad thing at all...I'm more sad for my father, and my sister, who were so much closer to her than I ever was. She loved me and I loved her, but we were just so d*mn different...so very...a difficult relationship is the best way to put it...
