Oh Marilyn, it's so good to hear from you! I'm so glad things in your life
are looking up. You've already had your share of bad stuff, so I'm wishing
this year to be filled with nothing but Good Stuff for you and your family!
Please keep up posted about the baby! That's just wonderful news! I'm so
happy for you!
Big Hugs,

Vickie in Cleveland

Happy New Year, Cyberfriends! You have not heard from me in quite a long
time
now. It isn't because I have forgotten about you. I still read the group
and
happy dance and pray with you all when you need it.
Some of you might remember that last December I lost my job of 36 years
and my
first grandbaby (by miscarriage) on the same day. Around the same time,
my
Dad's prostate cancer came back and my childhood sweetheart (love of my
life)
died suddenly of a massive heart attack. It was the worst time in my
whole
life, and I ended up in the hospital that weekend because I started crying
and
couldn't stop. My wonderful husband and members of this very group pulled
me
through that awful time, and life is good again. My Dad's cancer is gone,
and
in March, I got a new job as a paralegal with a litigation firm downtown.

The best news is that I will be a grandma soon -- around January
10, 2004. Everything seems to be going fine with the pregnancy this time.
We
don't know if it is a boy or a girl, but it seems healthy and that's all
that
matters.
I just wanted to say thank you for being there for me when I was at the
lowest
point in my life and for showing me that there really are good, decent,
caring
people in the world. I hope to be able to post more this year if the
overtime
at works lessens a bit. Happy New Year and God Bless you all.

Love, Gloworm in Dayton
