08" I cannot believe how little the pain had eased and still how sad I can feel, as tomorrow marks 2 years, it isn’t any easier, it doesn’t make me miss her any less, or feel like something isn’t missing everyday, any less then last year, or the day she died. What I do know is when I think about her; I can hear her voice, her tiny little lisp when she would begin the gossip she was about to share with “shoooo, I heard…… And I can see her, and that slight demonic twinkle in her eye when she was about to stir up trouble or cause some type of a ruckus. I can still feel her support when she would call exactly at the right moment to comfort and cheer you up, as if somehow she knew you needed it. So much has changed it 2 years, and so many things have happened, and still in my head I think so many times, because for so much, she was the first person to tell; I gotta call Jamie, even still. I don’t know how this works; I don’t know if she knows all this, I don’t know if she is aware of what is going on. Knowing her, if there was a way, and anyone was going to figure it out, it certainly was her. I believe she does, and it makes me feel good to think about her, because I wanna believe she is thinking about us and Kay, and doing everything she can; like she did when she was alive.------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------07" She died a year ago, although the pain seems like yesterday, but the way I miss her feels like she has been gone for ages. The world is not the same place one year later, however after a little bit of time passes a few things become clear and even still, well layed plans from some time ago are still just begining to reveal themselves. Some of her intentions were so apperent but they were also gifts that just keep on giving as her plan for all her family, friends and loved ones take shape. Mostly having to do with Kaile, I cannot help but feel, as she worked the system while she was alive, why she would not still be doing so after dying. James, I will miss you forever!---------------------------------------------------- -------"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge,That myth is more potent than history,That dreams are more powerful than facts,That hope always triumphs over experience,That laughter is the only cure for grief,And I believe that love is stronger than death.----"Robert Fulghum----------------------------------------------------- ---------------------Saturday, May 20th 2006 Jamie has left us. After years spent beating cancer against great odds some years ago, her spirit continues but her body could not. Due to issues associated w/ the cancer and all the treatment and surgeries, her damaged liver took an additional shock from acetaminophen poisoning and her liver began to fail. Shortly after that, the rest of her body called it quits.She was a fighter stronger then any of us could be, or can even have imagined. Her life was short but full, loved by so many especially the daughter she has left behind. She was not the mope-y type, but it will suit her well to be remembered fondly. Once again I ask anyone who reads this today, and evey day, to do a good deed and offer it to the memory of my friend Jamie or to any of your own friends that you still have the pleasure of enjoying.

In my book there are 2. The first is one who will work hard to go and get everything they want out of life, grabbing their slice of the pie, not having it handed to them. The other is anyone who will lay down their life, or intentionally put their own life in harms way for the sake of another.
