I too have gone through breast cancer and it was a horrible year but so far have come out the other side of it. I am praying for her Eddie so that you both will have side by side rocking chairs for many years to come and to enjoy your beautiful children of which you are so proud. Good Luck my friend and may God Bless....:-) BernieBerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03024565921761129108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-31110630119378790912009-07-10T21:55:14.553+01:002009-07-10T21:55:14.553+01:00Eddie...It's Friday (July 10)...almost 5 P.M. ...Eddie...It's Friday (July 10)...almost 5 P.M. here...<br />I've been to a friend's blog...and can't quit crying. I don't think you follow her....or follow Diana....but I'm going to post the link here (if it will allow me) to let you know what's going on...<br />I will comment on your comment on my blog soon...but right now, I'm just hurting for Diana.<br />Marcy posted us that Diana had to have her cat put to sleep...and it opened up such a wound in me.... Our cat, Sammie (15 years we had him) was taken from us last year. He didn't die a natural death...wasn't put to sleep....and I won't go into what happened to him...but I hurt for her...and wanted to 'unload'...and I know you'll pray for me as I cry through this. <br />How's this for a 'cheery' post...sigh.<br />Thanks for listening....<br />Jackie<br />http://blessingseachday.blogspot.com/2009/07/hugs-for-diana-as-spooky-goes-to-heaven.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-665120579643167462009-07-10T21:17:24.725+01:002009-07-10T21:17:24.725+01:00Hi Eddie, Just getting around to reading some of y...Hi Eddie, Just getting around to reading some of your posts. Now I know why so many hold your friendship, so dearly. This was a beautifully written post and I see why it received the POTD.<br />Your expression of love for your family is refreshing and heartwarming. Like one of my reader's said, the expression, "the nut doesn't fall far from the tree" is so true with regards to children. You and your wife have obviously done a great job, with those two. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers, during this difficult time.Margueritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15846051579802335412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-43959615884905212492009-07-01T19:39:44.682+01:002009-07-01T19:39:44.682+01:00I'm a friend of Bernie's-Diana's-Jacki...I'm a friend of Bernie's-Diana's-Jacki's-and Stillness's- we follow each other to great blogs...You sound like the perfect dad and husband...Loved the drawing with the long legs...first visit but now I'm a follower.Wanda.....https://www.blogger.com/profile/00551160819558198338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-50874855024646071752009-07-01T09:59:07.678+01:002009-07-01T09:59:07.678+01:00Congratulations on Post of the Day

I saw your comment on my blog and wanted to thank you for coming by. I have been busy trying to keep up if there is such a thing as keeping up! Anyway I truly enjoyed your post about Fathers Day and I was reminded of a sign that I read and loved, it said " A dad is someone who carries his childrens pictures where his money used to be!" Sounds like you are a wonderful dad Eddie!<br />By the way, my husband and I absolutely loved watching Fawlty Towers. They don't show it anymore here. But it made me think back to all of the laughs we had together watching it! I will have to check it out on youtube. I am not quite used to all of the things that can be done on the internet! <br />I will be back to visit you.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-63756295775405021062009-06-30T15:40:44.938+01:002009-06-30T15:40:44.938+01:00See, Eddie, see your lovely friend/party-planner e...See, Eddie, see your lovely friend/party-planner extraordinaire/beautiful Mama to E/sublime cuisine queen/film buff/art buff/photographer and..well...all-round most special girl Lola? Well, I came over here after reading about you on her blog and oh, how delighted I am that I made the journey!<br /><br />What a wonderful blog you have - I will spend more time exploring, but first I have to say wow! what a truly fantastic, loving and much loved Papa you are. Thank you so much for sharing such precious parental reflections with us and for introducing us to your exceptional children. <br /><br />And I, too, send special warm and healing wishes to your wife -- Renee made mention of her illness in her comments.<br /><br />P.S. Those of us with stilts instead of legs have much to be grateful for - not least that we can see over other folks' heads in a crowd!
