Well, today is a sad sad day, and I dont know where to go or what to do, so thought I would try and blog it out. Trouble is I dont even know what to say. I have lost a truly wonderful friend, who I really really cared about. Strange how people on here can mean so much to you even though you never actually meet. The thing is out of everyone on here, although I love you all to absolute pieces, I think my beautiful Kath was someone who could kind of really understand some of the issues we were facing. How truly awful it is to wake up one day and realise that the life you had always planned on having is no longer possible. That being only a fraction of what she was facing, yet she always looked out for me. It was so good to have someone around who just knew what you meant, i mean really understood without you having to explain. Those people are rare. And yes I have so many wonderful friends still here in mac, but I will miss this one. Just feel a little lost, it was just so sudden. I just wished I had of taken more time to tell her how much she meant to me, and how since meeting her she inspired to live life with more grace, courage and compassion.
So I guess, as life is too short, I want to say a huge thankyou to all my mac friends. You are wonderful and I know I havent met you face to face, but I think of you often and my life is far better off having met you all. You may not feel like you make that much difference but YOU DO. You make a difference in my life. You make my life better, and for that I am truly thankful.
So I guess I will take a few days to be sad for you my beautiful friend, but don't worry I will be up fighting again soon enough.
