Dear Michael,

I read about you and your beautiful lady today on this wonderful support website. How very blessed she was to have your devotion and love in her short life. Perhaps your reason for being on this earth was simply to be her one true love and love her so deeply and unconditionally during her journey on this earth. You loved her as she was. Even though she was carrying extra weight you LOVED every ounch of her. How many woman can say they have experienced that. I was married for 20 years to a man who left me because "he only liked to hug skinny girls". His words two days before he left me for that skinny girl. Your beautiful Denise was so blessed by your presence in her life. You had the privilidge of loving her. My mother died 1 week ago today. She was all I had on this earth. I am great friends who care and try to help. But I have found such support and have connected with all of you on this site. Mom died of that damn cancer we all seem so familiar with. I hope we can be friends and be there for eachother..all of us here on this site. My heart goes out to you. Blessing Sue

Just saw some of your posts and wanted you to know you are in my prayers. I can tell from your photos that she was a very kind person....has those kind eyes :) I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom, who was my best friend, so its a different loss....but the pain is the same and its unbearable. Its been over 2 years for me and not getting any better.

Hi Michael, I saw the picture you posted, what kind of race/walk is that? I see people with signs saying the people they lost. Seems very moving.
