Helpless

I hate feeling helpless. But that's exactly how I feel right now. A dear friend is going through a tremendous loss, and I don't know how to help her. I can't know exactly how she's feeling, but I can hurt with her. I can grieve with her. I can cry with her.

Our family cooks when we don't know what to do. And of course, that's what I'm doing. But sometimes that seems like not nearly enough. I could never do enough. So if you pray or meditate or just hold things close to your heart, please do that for my friend and her family.

Thank you...

Just being there for her is the best you can do. It's what she will remember most. I'll keep her in my prayers. I still remember everything you did for us...that was special.

I'll be thinking and praying for Stephanie and her family. Even though I don't know her personally, it still hurts and it hurts to see you hurting too.

Hugs and love to you and her and her family.

Nicole - You are alway so sweet and considerate, I'm happy to have you as my friend. And, I happen to think that your delicious cupcakes can make any situation better. :) Thanks again for your thoughts, support and comfort. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it all.
