    Stringer, thanks for letting us in on one of your many life stories... life changing stories for that matter. I would see his scar as being beautiful too! I agree on wanting Starbs to fight... get the strength in her to beat this! I wish and hope it can be that simple!

    Stringer, thank you so much for sharing the story of your son. You see, miracles do happen, we just have to believe.

    It's hard to hope when everyone says there is no hope, it's hard to hang on when everyone says let go. I don't want to believe this is the end for Starby. I don't want to believe that she won't be with us any more. My head has accepted that this will probably be the end, but my heart isn't ready to let go. I don't think any of us are ready for that. We all love her so much.

    Miracles can happen. I know they can. That's what we have to hang on to.

    Starby, we all love you. Fight, beat this, do not give up! I know your body is weak, but you aren't. Do not give up! We need you here. We need our ducky, our Starby, our light. Do not give up!

    It would definitely get a laugh out of her, but confused looks from her family. I don't want them to think I'm crazy, it's bad enough you all know I am. ;)

    Ha!! That excuse is getting lame my dear... stand up and take your punishment...

    I wish that it would stop raining, Marta and I want to plan an evening of dinner outside on the patio with the fire pit going... and soft music on the outside stereo... I also have an Italian fire urn on top of the table... but it is still raining... :(

    Any updates from the family? I can't stop thinking about her. I am praying for her every day.

    Stringer I loved your story. You are so correct when you refer to death...

    Hi there! I visited with a lifelong friend of Starby's last night. There has been some progress! Thank the Lord. Prayers do get answered, not always in our time and not always the way we hope but in two days time, Starby has come a long way and has had some good laughter time with her friend. She asked that we get the message out to all of you that Jo loves all of us and misses us and she is doing all she can to get better. So love to all of you from Starby!! :p Still keep prayers going. Her friend is being guardedly optimistic but such joy in her voice... it was wonderful to hear.
