:) Thank you for responding; yes, it has been hard but "the living have to go on living", to succinctly put it. I know my daughter would be exasperated with me if I remained in a depressed puddle all the time. She made a point to always say "I love you" at the end of conversations "in case anything ever happens". One major comfort for me is that she died instantly & did not suffer. So I continue to count my many blessings & try to live life to the fullest, keeping her memories alive. God's blessings to you; take care & keep on quilting!.........Tigger :lol:.............in response to GwenH
