My dear sweet momma has developed a brain tumor--specifically a glioblastoma multiforme. This is an update of all of the details of her treatments and her recovery. Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and concern. My new favorite quote: "Humans are like tea bags, you have to put them in hot water before you know how strong they are."

I have a picture of Teri and me at my very own third birthday party. She probably made me laugh a lot that day, and I know that we laughed together a lot during the next 57 years. And when we had nothing much to laugh at, we'd laugh at each other.
I will miss that laughter. I will forever miss my dear favorite cousin, Teri. But I will always be comforted and grateful that Teri left us peacefully, lifted up by those wide wings of compassion, caring and huge love which her brave family provided. God bless them all.

Tara, my name is Leah Rasmussen, formerly Leah Shade, and I was a friend of Neall's. I was unaware of your mother's condition until today. I am in Germany and cannot attend, but I remember how kind and wonderful your mom always was, and I have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I know that she is pain and worry free and I hope that is a comfort to you. Sincerely, Leah Shade Rasmussen

Hi Cathy -
What heartbreaking news. I never dreamed it would be so soon but, at least, she didn't have to suffer for years and years. She will certainly be missed. Even though I didn't see her much, I always knew she was there, thought about her, and loved her. I agree our loss if Heaven's gain.
Thanks so much for keeping me posted on my Daddy's side of the family.
I love you,
Carolyn

Richard, Tara & Neall,
Thanks to Polly Fisher I found your bog and what a special tribute to your wonderful Momma. The sunset picture is perfect - a dear, wonderful and special friend has spread her wings and flown to Heaven. I will miss her but a smile will always be brought to my face when I remember all the fun times that we had together - I was blessed to have her in my life and will always be honored to call her "friend".
My prayers will be with each of you today, tomorrow and the many days to come.

Tara,
A message came to me in the night--there is no sorry in heaven. We all know that your mom is with Jesus and she is not sorrowful or in pain. She is in good hands and is awaiting our arrival, so we can be reunited. Until then she doesn't want us to be sorrowful. It will take me awhile to reach that point and I'm sure it is the same with you and the rest of the family. But I am going to work on that concept. May peace be with you in the days to come. Love, kay

Tara, I'm so sorry about your mother. I know you are going through so many emotions now. Please remember, you were there for your mother when she needed you and that made her happy. I'm sure you have many wonderful and funny memories of her to keep with you always. Be glad that she didn't have to suffer for months on end. We'll continue praying for you and your family.

Tara,
I'm sorry to say that I didn't know your mother, but am truly sorry for you and your family. I know that sometimes prayers are not answered in the ways that we expect, but in her case it may have been a blessing in disguise that she didn't suffer very long. I know that is little consilation to you now, but keep looking up because you never know who may be looking right back. I wish you all the best and I wanted to let you know that this website is truly an inspiration and a blessing to so many others in so many ways. I hope you will continue to remember her here, and I hope that in doing so you will find peace and comfort in your loss.

teri,
after looking up your web-site from getting it from ms bonady to give to someone else, & after seeing pictures of your mom, i had no idea that this is who i heard people talking about. i didn't know your mom personally, but i have seen her many, many times& i always thought that she was such a pretty woman, i really loved her spirit. i'm sooo sorry that this is the person that everybody was talking about, but you know what God is so happy, because he loved her spirit also. i will not tell you that i know what you are going through, but i will tell you that by & by it will get better, & that everything that God does is for a reason, we may not know then but by& by we will. he didn't promise us sunshine all the time, sometime we have to have a little rain in our lives to remember that God is in control & that he will not put anymore on us than we can bear, so again i want to say that i'm so very sorry to know that this is the lady everyone was talking about, i've seen her many times in public, but i don't think i ever knew what her name was, but she made a great impression on me the times i did see her, i could tell she was someone special.i will keep you in my prayers, also when i go to the altar on sundays, i will lift you guys up to God in prayer.
