A Personal Note...

You may recall a while back when I told you of a very thankful Thanksgiving at our home - a surprise visit by my brother-in-law.

Most of you who read this blog are aware that Eva's brother, Cosme has been ill for quite some time. Wednesday morning, Cosme passed peacefully at home while in the arms of his wife, with his mother, his in-laws, and Eva at his side.

We appreciate all your kind words, thoughts and prayers.Cosme at his finest...

    Wow, I just read the Thanksgiving story and felt the need to comment again. What an unselfish act of LOVE, COURAGE, and just pure awesomeness that Eva gave up a kidney so that he could have more years on this earth. Here's to you, Eva....what an amazing sister you are. He was lucky and blessed to have you in his life and I am hoping his pain has ended now.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I haven't had the time to read all of my regular blogs and I'm quite late with my condolences but I still wanted to say something.
