I got the call during the worst moment. I was dealing with a bad attitude. I was trying not to deal out a bad attitude just the same. “She died” was all my mother said. For a moment I couldn’t speak. My mouth gaped open, I nearly dropped the phone, the world slowed down and drained away. Silence. She died. Just like that. Mother, wife, friend, neighbor. Gone. Just like that.
Send me Superman to take away this sorrow. Send me Superman to keep me strong. Send them Superman, too. I think of her kids, her husband, her community and hear their hurt loud and clear. Send them every super hero heart to love them during this trying time.

i am so sorry!
I am so sorry honey.
Battling cancer for 10 years is a long time. It’s one thing to say the suffering is over, but it’s another when I think of the huge void she now leaves.
i read the article heather posted on facebook and it sounds as though she was an amazing and inspirational woman who is leaving behind a legacy of strength, love and compassion. call if you need to talk. sending big hugs your way. xoxo
