Meredith, I'm sorry that I just saw this. How your heart must ache. I've been there previously with two very close friends. Please know we love you and are thinking of you during this time. Warm hugs sent to you all the way from Maine!

Meredith

What an amazing friend you were to Jody and whether she could acknowledge your presence or not, I get the feeling she knew and felt the gift of your heartfelt love.

My heart goes out to you, your friends, and her husband...sending lots of light energy and hugs through the amazing connections being built through this space.

Meredith
you would be a lovely special friend and I know would be kind loving and fun.

Meredith..I am so sorry..so very sorry for you..that your brave and courageous friend, Jody, has passed. I remember when you wrote about her this past spring/summer.. I am so glad that you were able to say good-by..as you wanted to.

I will be thinking and praying for you..and for Jody..altho she is probably somewhere around you right now..caring for you..as you have done for her.

Hugs

Gims, I'm so sorry your father has been suffering so long. Jody's last week was beyond hope, and I'm glad she didn't linger too long in that state.

The 9 of us gals from the exercise group were going to chip in on a large floral display, but one gal had the foresight to call Jody's husband and he said rather than flowers, send donations to Komen. I'll also be setting up my own online page as soon as I register for this year's Race For the Cure, probably in the next few days.

I'm normally not a phone call type, but this week I've been on the phone to tell everyone Jody was on her last days (and quite a few back-and-forth calls setting up visiting); then calls to say she had passed; more calls about the funeral; and now for the donations. I've been good and have not panicked.

If anyone wants to send a card to Jody's husband:

Meredith, I am so sorry to hear that Jody did not make it through another round of cancer. Sometimes all the drugs in the world. I guess you recognized that this was her last battle because you say her last week was hopeless. Your contribution toward her funeral... all the phonecalls, well, your contribution is priceless.

Meredith, please accept my heartfelt sorrow at Jody's passing. I know you...and I know that every time you think of her, you will do so with a smile and a warm heart. And I also feel that every time you do, Jody will dip down to give you a special feeling inside, just to let you know she is still around you and will never leave. Not really.

What a good friend you are. Good-bye Jody, for now.
