This is my guardian angel. People say we look a lot alike. She was beautiful inside and out.
I just realized what day it is. My little sisters birthday. She died of cancer 3 years ago on Oct.21. She was only 35 and had two small children ages 6 and 9. I miss her so much. She was my best friend. Even though she is gone now I can still feel her around me and it is wierd because now that she is in Heaven it seems she is right here with me sometimes. I wish we could have had her here longer. She was such a terirfic person. She worked with children as a coach. She was awesome and went the second and third mile with them. She made her children the coolest scrapbooks and it helps them to remember her. I miss her so much. Cancer is such a hateful thing. It turned my little sister Christi from a vivacious woman into an old person. She had the most beautiful blonde hair and it was so hard on her to lose it. The other day I heard a song by Rascal Flatts about a girls who dies of cancer. I can not listen to that song. It makes me so sad. I love all their other songs. I bought their new CD and I have to leave the room when that song is on. Happy Birthday Christi I love you so much and always will...your big sister Barbara

She looks like she was a beautiful vivacious lady, Barbara. I have lost family members to cancer as well, my beloved grandfather and a favorite great aunt. It is a nasty disease. My husband and I got married on October 7, 1978. We buried my granddaddy on Christmas Eve of that same year. He died from lung cancer, as did my favorite great aunt. I pray they find a cure for cancer, so children won't lose their Mom's and sister's don't lose their sister's until it is meant to be.
Blessings!~

You right it is very sad to think that someone so young with little children of her own would have to subcumb to a disease such a cancer and my heart goes out to you who I know miss here terribly. What a nice post expressing how much you miss your sister. I truly believe that she is there around you at the time you need her most and I bet you can talk to her with just a thought. Blessing to you sweetheart.
