I have been told by Beth's sister that I may let you know that Beth is in hospice now.
We bloggers from MSN Live Spaces are a family. One of our own whom we have known and cared about, Beth Marie, has little time left with us. Her family are gathered; and we who consider her a member of our own extended families are gathered too, with tender caring love for Beth and her family.
I love you Beth although you will not be able to read this. May our Lord wrap His arms around you and steady your journey back to Him. Love and peace be yours, precious dearest friend.
I'm sorry, Carole. I don't know her at all, of course, but even when our connections are only via cyber space, they're still connections and affect us deeply. When it's her time, may her passing be gentle, peaceful and merciful. Peace and Light to her and to all who love and care about her.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim. I just broke down after writing this, We spoke all these years and were like members of one another's families. I know that she felt that way about everyone she has met here in Blogger as well as MSN Live Spaces blogs.
DeleteCarole I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear this about Beth. I knew she was struggling with this last go round. I will think of her every summer when my hummingbird vine grows as she sent the seeds to me. It is also known as Cardinal Flower, but because of Beth will always be hummingbird vine to me.
ReplyDeleteCarole, thank you for the updates you have given.
Carole, you know I love Beth, too. She is on my mind and in my prayers daily. She is a very special person. Some of us do feel like family. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear this news. Hugs to you! xo

ReplyDeleteOh- Thank you so much! My heart is breaking. I wrote to her again yesterday. I have just loved her as I got to know her through blogging. I am so so sorry- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteCarole, Do you think it would be okay for me to do a post on my blog with a link back to your blog...and ask for prayers for her and her family? I won't do it without an okay. I think you have my direct email...dianakos1@gmail.com

Thank you so much for this update Carole. She has been in my thoughts and prayers every day. I wish I would have known her as long as some of you have as she is a great lady, kind, caring, thoughtful and a good friend just in the year that I have known her before she became so ill.

ReplyDeleteHello Carole, I have found you through Nana Diana, and wanted to come and give you my love.

My prayers will be with you as well as her and her family during this stage of her journey.

I had so hoped for a better piece of news. My prayers remain with her.
ReplyDeleteCarole I don't know what to say except that I am heartbroken. As you know I am one of those Spacers and Beth was one of the first people who came to my blog when I started. She is special to me as she is to many others. It's hard to know what else to say except I am heartbroken.
ReplyDeleteI am keeping Beth in my prayers. Also prayers for you and for the rest of the family.
ReplyDeleteBeth is an amazing beautiful compassionate caring woman who I am so
