    must be that time of year. my gf's mother had a massive tumor removed from her brain via surgery one week ago. it was a huge success though and she made it. my heart goes out to the families of all those who didn't.

    Pardon me for making an ass out of myself... but what did you mean, "must be that time of year"?

    that sounded really awful and made me madder!

    sorry....not thinking clear today and i apologize in advance if i took it the wrong way.

    i am so glad you posted this here helen. i am still in shock to know she really is gone. :( i never had the opportunity to meet her, and we both had planned on making it happen. we have spoken for years here...i shall forever cherish her letters and gifts all the more now. i hope all the love from this place at least touched her in some small way and as i said on the MT....she truly was so BELOVED here. there will be a gaping absence forevermore without our dear hippiemom.


    love to you laura - wherever you might be!
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    Oh my god.

    I am sobbing uncontrollably right now.
    The thing is, I bet none of us thought it could happen to her, even if she was so sick. She was too strong, too smart, too wise, too...

    I truly feel like I just lost a family member.
    I can't imagine how her real family members feel like right now.
    I am truly speechless, and I don't think I'll be able to listen to that song for a while.

    I had hoped to be able to offer a Vic ticket to her had I gotten through to them. I'm sure meeting her, had she been able to come, would have been the highlight of the experience.

    I'm sure if there's a good place afterwards, she's in it.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    hearts and thoughts......

    i had the honor of attending detroit 2006 with laura... i had 'met' her online, here, many years before that.
    i have to say her company provided me with one of THE best concert experiences i have ever had


    this is so sad.
    the world has lost a truly fabulous person and many of us have lost a truly fabulous friend.

    This is absolutely heartrending!

    I think that as a community we should all play "long road" at least once today to honor HippieMom.

    I hope her path is easier away from the pain of the body - she is truly glowing now...

    I think we should each play "LONG ROAD" and think of HippieMom, a person whom, even if you never met her, has altered your own path...as we all adjust and bump and shift each other -whenever we come into contact with other souls...honor the connection (even if it is only made through the filaments of computer wires ;) )

    Peace people! :)

    I knew it was coming. I didn't think it would be this soon though, it makes me sad to know.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    This describes exactly how I feel about hippiemom. I can't believe this is true. My good thoughts go out to her family.
    I really screwed that up. I really Schruted it.

    This is so sad. I never met hippiemom, but I remember her posts. She always seemed kind, fair and honest.

    If anyone ever doubts the effect their words have in a place like this board...look around today. Hippiemom sowed a lot of good karma with people who never even met her. I hope she's in a peaceful place.

    Wow. Shit this has really made me choke, I didn't know her too well but she'll be sorely missed.
