My dear bloggin' kitty frendz.
Sometimez love is havin' to be at your frend'z bedside when dey are ready to go to da rainbow bridge.

Elly haz been fightin' breast cancer fur 10 yearz. Da momee haz takin' many healin' journeyz with Elly over this last decade and beyond. It haz alwayz been a journey of self discovery & love.

Momee waz wit Elly when she had her first biopsy & she waz dere when Elly had her mastectomy & haz been wit her through thick & thin, evfun across divorcez & joyful second marriagez.

Elly waz a nurse fur 22 yearz, givin' her speshul light to premature babiez in da prenatal CCU, & she evfun made da most lovin' video about infant massage. Elly haz been a certified healing touch practioner, & she & da momee taught classez togedder in a wonderful clinic in Washington State.

About a year & a half ago, Elly's cancer returned wit a vengence. This last six months haz been da worse. Elly haz been receivin' chemotherapy but da cancer found its way to da bone marrow and da pancreas.

Today, da momee got da call at work dat Elly will most likely leave us, furry soon. Momee needz to go to Olympia, to take her turn sittin' at Elly's bedside. She needz to say good-bye.

Dis iz what true love iz about.

We are so sad to hear about your Mommy's friend. I am glad that your Mom will get to spend some time with her before she passes on, that is so important. My Mum lost her Mom 2 1/2 years ago and she knows how important it is to be beside someone waiting to cross the bridge. Our hearts and prayers are with your Mum and Elly.
