I am feeling just a little down tonight...
A very good friend is ill, and I am completely powerless to help...

Moral support over the phone is all I can do...

Can I get a hug?

*sigh*

26. A big hug for you and a dose of magic Ju-ju for your friend
My magic Ju-ju is powerful medicine so have your friend use it sparingly until done, then pass it on to a another friend in need.

39. Just noticed this sweetie
Sorry to be late w/ my well wishes.

Helplessness in the face of loved ones' infirmities is an awful feeling indeed. But rest assured. You are giving your friend strenght, hope, and happiness.

I'm sure of it.

55. Dear Peggy
I know what you are going through. We are, too. A friend of
my wife's, not to mention that ma wife's brother has a terminal
brain tumor.

We have to be strong for them, but sometimes we wish for someone
to be there for us, too, no matter how difficult it may be to ask.

{{{{{{{{Peggy}}}}}}}}} Add mine to the rest!
