but it is not.

My friend is in her early 60's like me. She had two wonderful children and they are both dead now. It is so very hard. She just went to another state recently and met the man who has her sons heart. There are pictures of her with her head against his chest. It is painful but also very beautiful.

I don't know how they do it. I hope never to know. It is a very special thing though and thanks for posting this.
