So sorry for the loss of your friend, Patty. I can tell by your words that you are still grieving. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you, Nikki.
It has only been one week and my life seems....turned upside down.

Every night I look at the clock and think...it's time to call, but there's no one on the other end to answer the phone.
Old habits are hard to break.
