Yesterday was 12-12-12 and a lot of people think it was a lucky day but not for me. Yesterday my sweet auntie Mary Joan lost her battle with breast cancer.
She was a fighter to the end. A beautiful person both inside and out. Very, very generous and always reached out to those in need.
Although I called her Auntie, she was my first cousin. She was my Dad's older brother's daughter and was only a few years younger than my parents. To respect my elders, I have always called her Auntie Mary Joan. This also includes several other first cousins too.
I thought last night that the word "Auntie" started with the letter "A" and so did the word "Angel". She is truly an "Angel" now. I prayed she would watch over me and give me strength to keep fighting this horrible disease.
I know deep in my heart that she is in heaven with Uncle Doug and that she will watch over all of us. This gives me peace!
Please say a prayer for her.
Love,
Debbie

God Bless you cuz, i miss you and I love you. i too am sad to hear of Mary Joan's passing. I can still see her and Doug at our house warming, she helped us to get our home here in Pleasanton, she was always helpful and kind. This month sounds like it has been very difficult for you also with Dr Appts, meds and pain, but I enjoy hearing that you still find moments that truely make you happy. I wish that you have more of them. My prayers are with you that your health improves and lets you enjoy some of your favorite things like building the Gingerberad houses with the kids. Say hello to Mark and the family, i will see you on Wednesday. Love you very much.
