Shirlann, I am so very sorry.  Having lost my husband in July, I know how tough this is.  You will be in my thoughts and prayers. It's a rough road ... one breath at a time.  Just breathe.

Glad you all got together...nothing like meeting up with our buds from bco. Not sure I know any of you but Lisa, but I've met dozens of other sistahs and I always come away better for it somehow. Hugs to all.

Last night I received this message on Caring Bridge about our dear Jeanne

"This is Mark, Jeanne's husband.  Jeanne died of her disease on Tuesday, May 8th here at home.  Lindsey, Michael, and I (with several dear friends) took care of her -- with the tremendous round the clock compassion and palliative ministrations of San Diego Hospice.

Readers of this blog saw Jeanne's tremendous intellectual and emotional awareness and (unwilling) acceptance of the journey she was on. You also saw a woman who after 14 years with no evidence of disease lived an additional 6 years and 5 months with enthusiasm and stoicism.

She took this time to tighten the bonds of family, enlarge her circle of friends and stay out in the world doing so many things and going so many places.

The way she lived her life and loved those around her serves as a lesson to us all."

Today's UT had a beautiful obituary for Jeanne: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/utsandiego/obituary.aspx?n=jeanne-lehmann-dillon&pid=157553712

The funeral is Monday at 1

Tomorrow is the Relay for Life in Rancho Penasquitos.  Marge joined my team and will be walking the survivor lap with me.  I'd love to have more of my BCO friends come and walk with me.
