My dad made the reverse journey to try to see his grandmother one more time - and also just made it. The family were convinced she was waiting for him. It makes me cry just to think of it!

It's awful how cancer strikes like that - a close friend of my mother's dies last year, less than a year after being diagnosed, and the same thing happened to her with the sudden and rapid deterioration.<br /><br />I know there's nothing I can say to make anything better, but I really am thinking of you and sending an internet hug through the ether. xoxoHannahhttp://wayfaringchocolate.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-68925107305719307302010-05-10T13:07:30.064+10:002010-05-10T13:07:30.064+10:00Aww, sorry for your loss Johanna. xAww, sorry for your loss Johanna. xNikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02700130650815918451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-21932171644242652010-05-10T12:46:34.442+10:002010-05-10T12:46:34.442+10:00Thoughts to all of you Johanna.
