Thanks for all the good thoughts Kat and everyone else! It means a lot to me. Yesterday was a long day, but the procedure was done and I feel fine this morning. I will be writing more in detail later on my blog, MaryAnn's Blog. Hugs to all of you!!!

Sending a carload of good wishes, thoughts, hopes and prayers, Mary Ann. My car's sort of small, though - but I won't be using it much for a few weeks. I hope that you can carry peace in your heart through the coming days, trusting that things will turn out well. They usually do. ((((((Mary Ann and family))))) ole joyful

May MaryAnn feel his Presence and be comforted in every way. Hospice provides peace, quiet and loving caretakers that should bring her some relief in her suffering. Hugs and Thoughts and Prayers for you all...nola anne

We appreciate your taking the time to find us and let us know about the how beautiful MaryAnn looked and the details about the service. As someone said, your description was as if we were there. Thank you for that. Some of my favorite memories of MaryAnn was in the early days when she joined the forum, I was talking about finding a new make-up and there was a long discussion about it. She sent me a 4 in. paint brush and some spackle, lolol. I had the pleasure of meeting her at one of the get togethers and she was the same sweet lady that I'd gotten to know online. We shared something in common which isn't fortunate for either of us. We both have had cancer and we exchanged emails and cards quite often, both of which always made my day. Again, thank you for thinking about us. It means a lot. She was a very special lady who will be missed very much. Gale-TX
