Hi all,

I'm in shock even though I knew it was coming. I'm all alone tonight and have a feeling it's going to be a very long night.

Dear Barbara, you may be physically alone, but you are certainly not spiritually alone. We all weep with you because your dear friend has become one of us. That is the gift you gave to us and to Doug, and now to yourself. You were fortunate to have him in your life, and we were blessed to know him through you. Let us wrap our arms around you and comfort you, Barbara. Rest and know that you did everything you could possibly do.

Rusty

Dearaest Barbara,

You are by far not alone. We are all right there with you. You are in our thoughts and our prayers. The Lord rejoices as another of His children come home. You were a blessing to Doug.

Take comfort in the fact that you aided in the Lord's work. You are a special person. Go ahead and cry tears of joy that Doug is no longer suffering. You gave him the greatest gift ever. You gave him a loving, caring, compassionate friend. A rare commodity these days.

Lady

Barb

I'm so sorry for your loss of Doug! It's never easy even when you know it's going to happen. The shock is always present when it actually does.

You'll go through so many feelings and such. Like eveyone has said...we are here and you aren't alone.

Remember...this is just temporary....one day you will see him again in glory. You gave him God's kinda love here on earth...and now...God is loving him....and you know what Barb...He is truly free right now.

Love ya Girl....I know this isn't easy for you right now.

{{{{{{Barb}}}}}}

Hugs and Prayers

Thank you all for your condolences. It still seems so unreal on one hand. It seems like I can just go to the hospital and he'll be there. His Aunt is going to take me out of town to Doug's memorial service.

You're in my prayers, Barbara. Thank God for Doug's aunt. Please take care of yourself now, and know that you did all you could for Doug while he was here. He's now in a better place and in a better life. You can do no more for him. You were a great friend when he needed you most.

(((((Barbara)))))

Thank you all again. I feel a lot better after a much needed nap. I hadn't gotten much sleep last night.

Hi Bar...I have been reading about yourself and Doug. All the old posts up until today. Wow. Doug was blessed to have you by his side through all of this. You need only be thankful and proud for the chance to know and help him. Your reward will be even greater than others because of your selfless giving. Find peace in knowing that you did what you could do.
