This morning, serenity's brother died suddenly of unknown causes. He was in the hospital and due to be released when this happened. The whole family is in shock as you can imagine so please keep them in your thoughts and prayers (especially her mom) at this sad time. |

thanks all, once again. I am so, so grateful to you all. Your prayers have been a warm blanket to me and my family. Love to you all, threefold... And we are a determined bunch--so know that we will be as fine as we can be. Not the same. No. Just different. But the love remains constant. Some of you also know my sis--she wanted me to extend her appreciation to you all as well. You all are very special people. Thank you. and yes...I think I'll stick around--hope that's okay.  |

Karen, I am so distraught with this news and find it hard to express my feelings, but in a poem which you will find in your email. When things calm down perhaps you will have a chance to read it, until that time, please accept my sympathies and know that my prayers are with your entire family. Warm hugs to all Liz |

Kare, my dear sweet friend, after reading your poem and replies, I just now came back here to see if I could find out anything about you. I am shocked to read this. I'm so sorry that I haven't checked back here before now. My prayers are with you and your family in this time. My heart hugs are with you...... "Love makes the world go around" |

Sending prayers on wings of light High aloft from fear and fright Lo! Ahead so bright the pearly gates Where we all shall meet our future fates There he stands, cloaked in gold Among his family and friends of old Above his head, the hand of God To you he stops to wink and nod A last goodbye, Gestured on high, On this sad nigh Release a sigh errmm, well, something just came over me. |

Lady Sof? warm hugs...things "come over me too" now and then, and I'm grateful that you hugged me with your verse. and gratitude for prayers sent and all those prayers in continue. May I share something I found today? My brother was a student of theology, and he owned quite an extensive library. Since he and I were "discussion" buddies (putting it nicely now--smile) the family decided that they belonged with me. I found several editions of the Bible (thus far, I counted 12) but I was looking for his "study" bible--the one he that had highlighted and wrote notations in the margin. I found it about an hour ago. Inside the cover I found this scripture written very boldly--and more legible than normal. It was the first thing I saw: 1 Corinthians, 15:55 "OH DEATH, WHERE IS THY STING? OH GRAVE WHERE IS THY VICTORY?" It felt like we were talking again--and gave me so much peace. I just wanted to share that with you all. He left me quite a present there--one I thought that I should share with you kind people. I love you guys. sigh. |

Karen, I hardly know what to say. It's often difficult to find the "right thing" to say at a time like this. Just please know that I am so very, very sorry and that you and your family are in my most heartfelt prayers. |

This popping back up came as quite a surprise to me--I want to thank you all for just enduring with me. I told Janet Marie that I feel like my life was snapped in half by Katrina. My brother passed away before my sister did, and it will be one year on the 23. It feels, oddly, like twenty. I apologize for acting strange--the mood swings, the anger, the endless tribute poems to those who have passed on...and yes, Reb, yes Christopher, I even apologize for apologizing too much. All prayers are gratefully accepted--and I if I have to ask for any special favors from the powers that be, I'd like to die of old age--with laugh lines on my face. *hugs through tears* Thanks for remembering me, and hold your loved ones tight--because until we lose them we don't understand how much of them defines us. I feel a bit rudderless, but hey? I'm stubborn, yanno? |

Karen, it pains me that both you and Karilea have each lost a bother and a sister in recent times. I have an emense amount of compassion for what you have both gone through ~ but I also have a tremendous amount of admiration for your indominatable spirits. You have blazed the trail for Karilea's most recent losses. ~ Soul sisters commiserating together and giving support to one another. God bless you both. With love, Linda |

Dear Karen: I'm very lae getting in here but wanted you to know that I regret not being among the first to offer condolences. I do hope you and your family are recovering from this shock! I read all the messages and was particluarly touched with your finding your brother's study Bible. We lost our only grandson, to a reckless driver, a number of years ago and when cleaning out his room, we found Bible messages everywhere. In his books, his drawers, on his desk, in the pockets of his clothes. It was immensely comforting then and still is! Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Karen, I, like others in this thread, didn't notice the date. I read through all the messages, struggling to see the words through my tears and gradually realised that this was an old message, and then one of three years. However, as late as my message is, please accept my tears, prayers and hugs for you and your mother. I know grief too, and this must have been devastating, even though you are all so strong. Tears, prayers and hugs - Owl |

You know...there isn't one day goes by that I don't wonder about Serenity, and everyone who was hit by this life changing disaster. I doubt very much if any one of them will ever live long enough to get over this type of devastation. The post trauma from a situation like this always seems to get swept under a rug somewhere and not dealt with. As Karen is my friend - I am SO thankful for all of you! She needs this kind of love and support for a long, long time. God/Goddess bless them all - every one! |
