Hi Brad,
I think very fondly of Lauren. She was always more than willing to share from her wealth of information on all things CF. I was amazed at all of the time she must have spent researching items that were on her very informative blog.
I loved receiving her daily <i>Pools of Grace</i> devotions! Often times, she would tie her struggles with CF into that day's devotions, so that added an extra dimension to her devotions for me personally.
I know that she felt so very blessed to have you as her husband and I was glad that she had you to take such good care of her. I am still keeping you in my prayers, for healing and strength.
Any time I PMd her, she would get right back with me. Here is an excerpt from one of the PMs I kept that may mean something to you. It was from December '07.
<i>Our Christmas plans are almost complete. We try our best to get together with both families, but of course, sacrifices need to be made. I think we're going to my husband's grandparents on the 23rd. My husband and I have our own little tradition of eating a nice meal on our wedding china on Christmas day. We actually use the good dishes more than a lot of people I know. Why register for them if you're not going to use them?
Well, I better be off! Have a great day and I'll catch up with you later. </i><><
