Having a friend who lives/ed far away, who I sent an email with a funny photo of me in it every Monday for 2+ years as she battled ovarian cancer -- and feeling from afar as her life flickered out and imaging her seeing her children who she desperately wanted to live for -- you have hit a chord here my poetic friend. Wiping my eyes - I need to step away before I can continue reading this morning.
