She said she never felt she needed a man in her life. Her dad was all she needed. He was there when she needed a moral support, encouragement, or just an ear to listen to her conversations.  I think she has shown a lot of courage so far dealing with the whole thing.

Dear S, Today, I found the sweetest surprise in my mail box. As I was reading your gold/green handmade card, I was overwhelmed with joy. Yes, you got the colour right and may I ask how you do remember these things? Thank you so much for the CDs. I loved the pictures.
