For me...stories of love and support...from one person to another...no matter how difficult the circumstances, no matter how futile the effort may appear, no matter how seemingly small the event, proves to me that there are angels among us, who know how to really live, how to share their heart, and how to make those in distress and pain find ease. I hope the following angels that I have stumbled upon touch your heart as they have mine.
From a mom, who puts aside her own fears and pain so willingly to fully embrace her daughter's life, love, disease, struggle and spirit. I am full of admiration for them both. I can only hope that I would do half as well.....

Maybe you need to watch "The Princess Bride" first. As it was one of the first movies Brent and I shared, it has always held a special place for me. Funnily, I was just quoting this particular line...."Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."....just yesterday, making a similar point as this writer, though not as well. On the other hand, the love Al shared with his brother, comes through loud and clear, no reference point needed...

And then, there are strangers, who no longer are... Who have gone out of their way to think of me and lift my spirits. Jeanne has done that many times, perhaps not even fully realizing her gift. Thanks. You have meant so much.
