The reason I walk Hucky, Darlene's dog, is because her husband has cancer. He has to have a 2 and a half hour drive every two weeks to get treatments. He only has a few months to live. I don't know what I'm going to do/say to Darlene once he goes...I know she'll be very sad and all those others words that describe loneliness that aren't coming to me right now

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. That's awesome that you walk their dog for them, though.

There's really nothing you can say to someone when they lose a loved one. You can just be there when they need you.

I know

I went over today, and it was the first time I had really talked to HIM, John. Usually I just go over to visit Darlene and her mother, but today John came into the kitchen and we had the most wonderful conversation about dogs. I never knew he was such a dog kind of guy. I'll probably post some more in Dog General about it.

One of my best friends is losing her mother to breast cancer. she's had it for quite a while, and, has recently been told she only has a couple of months to live.

Then, this weekend, I get an email from another good friend that her mother has been diagnosed also with breast cancer. Ugh. I'm going to buy another ten pack of wristbands to send to them. This is also to bump this thread back up.

I ordered my bands on the 4th and they arrived today, the 10th. Such a good cause and great way to support it! The bands are only $1 each - and they come with a postcard as well. I am going to pass them out to family members. Thanks for posting Guster Girl! Wear Yellow! (also a *BUMP*

)

Yay, glad everyone is checking the site! I must've ordered mine incorrectly or something, it didn't post on my debit card, and, i've not received them, so, I'm going to reorder! But, glad to know the wristbands come in quickly. *BUMP*

**guster girl** · 06-10-2004, 11:05 PM

Alright, another bump.

I ordered two boxes of wristbands and hope to get them soon! I even saw that I did it correctly this time, because the charge has already shown up on my statement! I'm looking forward to getting them, I have to make a list of who I want to give them to first. I'll probably get more later......I'd love to get the big box of 1200 and pass them around to people, but, I'm pushing my luck ordering 20!

Check out the site if you haven't yet.....
