Since our daughter died, I do not seem to care what others say or do. I guess you could say I know what real grief is. Don't worry about what she said. She does not know what it has been like this past year or so when we have lost 3 family members and several close friends. I know what is important and what isn't.

My brother died of lung cancer, my Father died of colon cancer. So take your martyr crap somewhere else. How dare you tell me what thread I can come on and what thread I can't. You think you have a corner on feelings? How dare you. All I said was people get lung cancer from stuff other than smoking. My brother never smoked a day in his life. I don't know how that was turned into a personal attack on your grief.

Thanks, MamaB...you are a strong woman. When FReepers share grief and prayers...you know you're with the good folk!
