Kabu, it is what our family told each other when a little baby died in the
family and then his grandfather went not long after. It happened so that he could hold and care for that little baby, we told each other.
I am so sorry that you have lost a friend.
My best art buddy called two days ago, waited six months to call. He's a Navajo Indian who used to travel and sell his work with me and now has off and on gangrene, diabetes, pace maker and now dialysis three times a week. I have told him to hang on until October when I will visit and kidnap him and drive some old trails one last time.
I hate this, but we laugh so much, even now on the phone, so that is the good that we hand each other. What else can a person do?? All we have is our love of laughter left in the face of all this sorrow.

There is nothing I can add that the others didn't say, Kabu, but sending you a warm hug.

Kabu, that is so sad, and yet, what you say is true....
they are united again in a much better place in brand new bodies, where there is no more hurt or anguish..

Oh, MamaH, I am so sorry. It's true, though, now they're together. But it's hard to be missing a dear person. Hugs are being sent your way, sweet lady.

Lynn is holding little Joey in her arms forever now, Grandmummy. And I know they are both smiling down on the beautiful lady they loved so much. I love you.

Tonight
All these things seem to come at once Kabu, I suppose the more friends one acquires the more involved one feels by that very nature. One thing you can share your sorrow and feel a little bit of your pain.

It is always hard when a loved one transitions but
when they have been sick and in pain, passing over and healing is always best. I know she is hugging her little one and they will shine down on their family with love and light. Many blessings to you to ease your lose and pain. Love and Light.

I am sorry for your loss Kabu... its never easy to lose a friend... and I do remember the Chalis Wiley made, it was beautiful and such a nice gesture. Your friend is with G-d now and hopefully at peace so we should pray for her daughter and others that will miss her. Be well my friend xoxoxo

Here is a big hug for you. I agree with you that there is peace in the passing of one who is going to be in the hands of God and with that dear little one. You are holding up so well that is a blessing. On this earth we greive for ourselves and our losses; they are going into such peace, joy and love we cannot imagine; God gave her special blessings by taking her before so much pain, how dear. Our love from our home to yours. God bless you.

My heart is with you at this time of sorrow. What a sad story. Your friend's daughter must be filled with double grief at this time.
