A Sister Just Like You

I just want to let you know
You mean the world to me
Only a heart as dear as yours
Would give so unselfishly

The many things you’ve done
All the times that you were there
Help me know deep inside
How much you really care

Even though I might not say
I appreciate all you do
Richly blessed is how I feel
Having a Sister just like you

I love you Joan

I am so sorry you have to face this horrable grief with your sister. Family is so important, my heart and prayers are with you both, and her children. I pray God give you and her peace and that she knows Jesus as her savior. May God bless you both with the peace that surpassed all understanding! Many blessings!

Shaunna...take some screen shots of the thread. No telling if there'll be access to the net where she is, and it'd be a shame to drag the laptop all that way for nothing.

Oh, I couldn't imagine going through what you are going through right now, Shauna. I haven't lost someone close to me for many many years and never through a long illness. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your sister and the rest of your family.

I LOVE YOU MY SISTER. can I just say again thank you to you all for your thoughts and prayers, and kind words of support it means so much to us
