one's ability to move forward and to see a bigger picture, and inhibits our ability to know that there may be and can be gentler times ahead.
Sometimes getting stuck in that tragic moment is the way people hang onto their sense of their loved one. But your sister was so much more than her tragic passing and I send all my wellbeams out to her daughter and to you. So sad for a daughter to be stricken with the loss of her mother (that happened with my wife, but not as early as with your niece) and that leaves an apparent 'crater' where so much connection previously existed that this may seem insurmountable.
Take care of yourself, gratefulmom, the loss of your sister is still fresh and her wonderful daughter is the closest connection to her for you. And for her father. He maybe hanging onto her with all his might. Trying to hang onto his memory of your sister, his partner/love.
Welcome what happens and recognize that her partner is probably struggling not only with his physical malady but that hole in his heart left by the passing of his love. It will be hard to refocus and my hopes and prayers are that he can move to that point and help his little girl and welcome your help with her too.
Ongoing illnesses (like cancer) do often have a draining and debilitating effect on those loved ones around the person afflicted with that malady. I can only hope and project good thoughts and movement to better times for you, your niece and her father.
Take care, Tim

I have always been affected by your loss of your sister. you are such an incredible and giving person. I see that daily. You have a special spark of life, and you just throw it back out into the world every day.You wake up and throw those healing beams right back into the sunrise where they shine on to all who need them. Every day. Your spirit I am sure is with your sisters daughter. Your spirit is not one to be ignored, it is there. It affects people, especially family, it is always beating through your warm heart. I beleive she feels your love and vibes.
You have inspired me through some of the hard times I am going through. I couldn't be be more proud of you. Stand tall, my friend, you a wonderful, magical,and inspiring person and all our thoughts are with you.
All our love Gigi, pk

for Ali, and you too, Gigi. And even for him, that he might see the bigger picture.
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.
My sisters little 15 year old daughter, who she left behind when she passed away....is in need of some positive vibes, she lost her Mama ( my sister almost 2 years ago), now we know that her father is sick with cancer too. This little girl lived through her Mamas illness for 4 years, now to do it all over again is just not fair. He is not getting any treatments, so I do not know what that means for him, he may live longer ( I swear I think the cemo does a person in) or die faster, we just don't know. Oh yeah he won't speak to me since my sister passed so it makes it hard, to talk to Ali. I want her to live with me , but he says no!! My sister wanted her with me also. Its such a mess.
tiger, i made an extra prayer for your friend and his family this morn at mass.......hope it helps peace.....johnman
Well beams for Harriets family, so sorry to hear of your loss.
