Awwwwwww, {{{{Hil}}}}, bless your heart. Gosh, I'm at a loss for words here.

Just remember you DID survive ds leaving for Vancouver....you will continue

to make it. To keep the phone bill down, can you do instant messages with

them via internet?

Big hugs to you:)

xoxo Stel

I'm so sorry. I don't know what to say other than having been there with our oldest, you will find ways to fill the void so that the pain eases. Big hugs hon.

Oh Hilary, hun, I'm so sorry you are without them for such a long time. That must be so hard. On the positive side, doesn't this mean that things are going to be working out for the two of them? They will be together again?

You can do this Hilary. May will be here before too long.

Wishing you comfort and peace,,

Tracy

I'm so sorry hon .. Not sure what to say ..

Can't imagine being that far for a such a long length of time like that ..

Get one of those calling cards so you can talk often ..

Perhaps use the computer to stay in touch as well.

We're here for you hon if that helps ..

Take Care :)

Thanks you lot.......what a pile of "feeling sorry for myself piffle" that was. Well, it serves me right 'cause here I am at 3 a.m. checking to see just how much damage I did last night lol!!! I have a well deserved "splitting headache" and will no doubt need to indulge in a nap this afternoon! Yes, ds is on AOL messenger, even at work and I often get a "Hello Mum!" Sorry, what a goose! :-) Hilary

You're not a *goose*....you're just a Mum.

Hey, don't they also have a way you can actually *see* the person you are

instant messaging with? Maybe, if its not TOO expensive, you can check

into that, since you both have AOL.

I just know that when I im w/Mel's sis in Fl, I can almost 'hear' her voice

as she is typing away. *Feels* just like a phone call.

Hang in there, Mum:)

They do, but we don't. Actually I don't think it is too expensive. I sometimes use the computer microphone and talk on AOL iming but prefer typing. You are right though if you have actually heard someone's voice, you "hear" it while doing this. Makes them more "real" if you know what I mean. It is the most wonderful invention. Hilary
