I wanted to pay my respects to Laura. I don't think I ever communicated with her but I've never heard a bad thing said about her. I rarely read stickys so I was saddened and shocked to hear about this. It's always heartbreaking to lose one of our own. Thoughts and prayers to her family.
I can't believe I missed this thread. About a year ago I got a PM from Laura - we were talking Cancer and I got lumps in my throat. I was always inspired by her courage and ability to take her disease with such a head on approach. I am so sorry for her family. But I know that deep down, this cancer didn't beat her - she may not be here physically but she's here in spirit. My love truly goes out to her family and I hope that you find comfort and peace. I can't imagine the struggle you've all gone through, but you've been blessed by such an amazing person who has touched so many lives. Much love.....

Havent been around too much this past month.
You know how things just get busy.
Especially this time of the year.
I never met Hippie.
But when I first found out I was pregnant and posted she was one of the first to congratulate me on my new life with well wishes for a happy mother hood. I will never forget that.
My father in law is battling a brain tumor right now and understand what the whole family is going through.
Never take a day for granted.
Never let the chance to meet someone new pass.
As I read the lyrics to Long Road I cried.
And now everytime I hear that song I will think of Hippie and her love for people she never met but knew so well...
the person below me smells like cat pee and raisins...
Merry Christmas to Hippiemom's family as well. I know it's not an easy time, but we are thinking of you and hope you're doing ok and love you as well. Best wishes for the New Year.

I haven't been on the board in quite a while and only came upon this now and the news broke my heart.
I never met hippiemom, but through her posts I learned to know a sensitive, sensible, strong, beautiful person.
Thanks, hippiemom, for your wisdom. Your words made me nod and smile, even when you were fighting the cancer. I thought of you often, wished you well through your travails.
And I always got a kick seeing you straighten things out when they got heavy on the Moving Train.
I know you're in a better place now. You're not entirely gone as you live on through your family and friends. As long as we have room for you in our hearts, you're still with us.
My thoughts go to hippiemom's family and loved ones.
May 2008 bring peace to everyone.
I've used hammers made out of wood
I have played games with pieces and rules..
I've deciphered tricks at the bar...
But now you're gone,... I haven't figured out why...
I've come up with riddles... and jokes about war...
I've figured out numbers and what they're for...
I've understood feelings.. and I've understood words...
But how could you be taken away?...
And wherever you've gone...and wherever we might go...
It don't seem fair...today just disappeared...
Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar...
We were but stones,... your light made us stars
With heavy breath,... awakened regrets...
Back pages and days alone that could have been spent,
Together... but we were... miles apar...t
Every inch between us becomes light years now...
No need to be void,... or save up on life...
You got to spend it all.....
And wherever you've gone... and wherever we might go...
It don't seem fair...you seemed to like it here...
Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar
We were but stones,... your light made us stars
And wherever you've gone... and wherever we might go...
It don't seem fair...today just disappeared...
Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar...
We were but stones,... your light made us stars
You're an angel when you sleep
How I want your soul to keep
On and on around the bend
I've been away for awhile. I recently learned of hippiemom's passing. :( It saddens my heart. This world has lost a truly remarkable person. Though I never met her, I could tell she was a loving person and gave so much to those around her.

Wish I could have met her
Peace
