    I'm glad you had such a great time! You look so happy. That makes me feel so good!!!!! :D

    It's on it's way my love.

    Hey there Chuffy, glad to hear from you too. Don't worry so much - sometimes changes in life are necessary and can make a big difference. No matter what your choice, I wish you all the best my dear.

    As Giulio took that picture I was thinking of all of you and intended to send it to this forum anyway, so maybe that's why I look my best. It just had to be. You are all so wonderful to me and it really reflects.

    Check back with you all a little later, so please behave... well at least try. Na.. just be yourselves because I love you all just the way you are!

    Hey my warrior! I think a lot of us are glad it's over for a while, next is Easter, I think. But at least no fireworks which freak most pets out and poor Larry is glad it's over too.

    Believe it or not, I still did not get the x-mas gifts that I had planned, but they will eventually be gotten and sent... I admit I'm slow. As a matter of fact, the film of Alexander on the day he was born was just finished and shown to Jaime on Saturday this year. She cried tears of joy when she saw it and that made me feel good that I was able to do something special for her (I had to convert it because there was only sound and no picture, so I had to work on it for a while, but finally got it done right). When I make a promise, I keep it, no matter how long it takes. Just a few things like my cancer, no job, less money, and other things got into the way but I have not forgotten. And now, in 10 days, my brother will be here and I will spend every available hour with him and Alex because I cannot get enough of them.

    So... three cheers for 'normality'! (If we can call it that)

    TTFN,

    You did look great my dear, can you feel all the love coming at cha??

    I always behave Momma, the problem is keeping these 'lil brats from puttin' dresses on the little male puppies... but that's only one thing. I would use up way too many KB's if I listed the many devious things they have done AND that they are planning... always planning those gwiols... BRATS I tell you!! They wear me out trying to keep them out of trouble...

    I know it's a tough job, my MOSTEST, but someone's got to do it and I can't think of a better 'big brother' and also know those girls just love you lots.

    No need to list things because this Momma knows what her kids are capable of by heart. Mothers always know these things - it's natural instinct.

    Starbuck8 aka Starby and I have been talking about doing this for a while, so here it goes. Chery, we hope you don't mind.

    As many of you may know, Chery has terminal cancer, and she’s recently taken a turn for the worse.

    Chery has been a member of AMHD for many years; she is a wonderful person, a great listener, and a great problem solver.

    Chery is always there when she’s needed, call on her and she comes running, ready to give a hug, a kind word, whatever is needed. Now she needs us, she needs our support during this difficult trial.

    What can I say about Momma C, there’s so much to say. She is everything rolled in to one, and I, for one, consider myself blessed because she is my friend.

    Tears are running down my cheeks as I’m writing this, I don’t know what to say, how to describe someone who is indescribable?

    I know that all of you want to give her the support that she’s always given to us on AMHD. It’s our turn to give a shoulder, to lend an ear, to be there for our wonderful Momma C.

    Hopefully you are all allot more eloquent than I am. ;)

    Chery, all I can say is this, I love you dear, you have made such a big difference in my life. I’ve never seen you face to face, never held your hand, never gave you a real bear hug, but that doesn’t matter. I see your heart every time you write something on this site. I see your soul when you talk to us. You are an angel on earth, a bona fide angel, and you are loved.

    I don't know Chery but I can see by these posts that it is my MIS-fortune. She sounds like a true reflection of Gods love. I think this is a beautiful thing you have done here and it tells me a lot about YOU. I noticed this thread is kind of old. How is she doing now?

    Hi Cozyk,

    Chery is the ultimate survivor and mentor to all of us. Knowing that she is there is enough for her 'fans' to revel in her caring love and thoughtfulness for us...

    Yeah she is fine, and we are the ones that benefit from her concern for us...

    Hi Cozyk, (aka Kim... I peeked, lol)

    You'll love our sweet Chery, just like we do. It wouldn't be AMHD without her! She keeps us kids in line around here. Right Stringy? Got to watch out for Stringy, he likes to bug us girls. He pulls our hair and stuff... heehee! That's when Momma C steps in and gives him 3 lashes with a wet noodle!

    Chery is hanging in there! Hopefully right now she is spending time with the love of her life---her grandson Alex, and having a great time with him as usual. I hope she doesn't wear herself out too much.

    I know Chery will be happy that you stopped by and said hi. We haven't been here for awhile. We stay locked up in our castle all of time. It's about time we came back here once in awhile, although Chery tracks us down wherever we are! :D

    Well, if you washed that smelly hair of her's only ONCE in a while... I wouldn't have to do it for you. And besides, she was singing all the while anyway... she loved it. 'Cept when her head got stuck in the toilet drain, MAN... I had to pull her feet so hard that her head almost came off... but I persisted... kept pulling... and it popped back out. It was just a little loose though and kind of on backwards... so what wrong with a dolly that has a slanted head anyway?

    Hey Starty, I was about to go to bed and saw this pop up. Yes, Chery wrote the other day. She was doing a tiny bit better, enjoying Alex and wanting to be there for Jamie. She just has such a struggle with the heat. She wants so much to get some energy back to come back online.

    Hope you are well Starty! I will write more later, have a virus or some quirky thing. Miss you and everyone. I haven't been on here much lately either but I trust all of us will soon return and enjoy being together again soon. Sweet Dreams!

    This is from Chery...

    Thanks dearest. Love and miss you too. All of you.
    I am not in the best of health and naturally a bit depressed - but still alive and sassy as ever.
    Sorry that I don't visit here much, but I don't think that I could concentrate on giving my best at this time and not much energy for the lounge.
    Please pass on my best wishes and hugs to all.
    Hopefully, I will be back soon. My grandson helps me through things a lot - he is almost 3 now and I just found out that he is going to be a big brother in 8 months... again Jaime does not want to know what it is going to be.. so I might never know - but will see while I am spooking.
    My monster is 8 cm large now, but being slow and easy on me.. but still have to spend most of my time in bed and on oxygen - and pain meds which I don't like much.I welcome mail from my AMHD family. You can also post this in the lounge if you like dears.
    Love and Hugs, your Chery

    She is still in ill health, and in a lot of pain. Chery is as nice a person as I have ever known. An I am fortunate to call her a friend.

    I will and I will need to talk with her, I'm sure that she would appreciate it. I can't give it out to anyone unless she approves first, I hope that you understand.

    Just a quick note, not a lot of info but Chery told me the other day that it even hurt her fingers to type. She is sure not one to want us feeling sorry for her though as you all know. That girl is one hard fighter and I respect that so much! On a higher note, she has been able to spend quite a bit of time with her sweet grandson Alex and he is the light of her life. She has felt bad not to be able to be a part of the AMHD family for awhile and is hoping her health will improve enough to get on the site soon. She does appreciate all the love being sent her way! Have a great night/day to each of you! One more bit of info. Chery's brother was able to stop over for a visit before going back to Afghanistan so that was a real blessing to her.
