Well, when we used to read magazines in the old days. But CaringBridge (and similar sites) have been such blessings to not only the patient, but to family and friends that I have known. Sometimes we forget that friends of the afflicted need our support in their grief, too.Candynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-70673037628405193712009-12-03T16:50:00.000-09:002009-12-03T16:50:00.000-09:00Definitely!jasonSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-3089477043726149102009-12-03T16:49:35.000-09:002009-12-03T16:49:35.000-09:00Thank you Matt for giving us an opportunity to show God&#39;s love.

Bye.&quot; click.<br /><br />It&#39;s not that the causes aren&#39;t good, it&#39;s that it is assumed that I owe them 50 because I always give it. I spoke to my husband and we came up with a list of who we will give what so the next time it happens I can say &quot;I spoke with my husband and we agree that 55 is doable this year....&quot;<br /><br />Sorry for the tangent. Like I said, not even sure that comment goes with the post,..Helen Migonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-85238862777079562382009-12-03T08:58:28.000-09:002009-12-03T08:58:28.000-09:00Wonderful post, Jason.<br /><br />Very, very good stuff!<br /><br />I generally find any excuse to NOT do what I should. Anything I can use as an excuse works for me!<br /><br />Then I kick myself afterward and have to repent.<br /><br />I&#39;m glad you followed through and commented on the site!Peter Pnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-88511563812171570682009-12-03T07:39:19.000-09:002009-12-03T07:39:19.000-09:00What a great way to look at it, Jason. This time of year is when my &#39;giving&#39; nature goes into overdrive! This year has been different for many reasons... but you&#39;ve just proven the point that NOTHING should stop us!Bridgetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-74659247008963662702009-12-03T06:33:56.000-09:002009-12-03T06:33:56.000-09:00Excellent question, Jason. How often do we fail to do something we know we should. Unfortunately, it&#39;s probably more often than we&#39;d like to admit.Ginny (MAD21)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512864901845819271.post-32197946320476661312009-12-03T06:33:00.000-09:002009-12-03T06:33:00.000-09:00Wow.
