Have you ever lost someone you love and wanted one more conversation, one more chance to make up for the time when you thought they would be here forever? If so, then you know you can go your whole life collecting days, and none will outweigh the one you wish you had back.
Several months ago my cousin's step-daughter was hospitalized and diagnosed with leukemia.
I was stunned and saddened to learn yesterday that at the age of 34 she had passed away.
Three sweet, handsome boys now no longer have their mother.
We saw them the last time we were in the States.
Summer 2010
(My boys are the big ones)
Yusef and Zack were shocked to hear that their mom had passed away.
My heart breaks for these precious boys.

Life is a game - play it.
Life is a challenge - meet it.
Life is a dream - realize it.
Life is a sacrifice - offer it.
Life is love - enjoy it.

Such sad news, Tammy, and my heart also cries for her dear sons. What a very difficult and emotional time they must be going through although I'm sure they are getting lots of love and support from family. My sincere condolences to the whole family ~ xo
Time is the only healer Tammy. This too shall pass. The boys would in the days to come, come to terms with this truth. May her soul rest in peace and may God give you all the strength to bear this loss
Hi Tammy, I'm so sorry! It is a hard and difficult step to cope when things happen to us how are you! very unfortunate and sad. This morning I pray for this family who has lost a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a friend!

such sad news, but she is no longer suffering. Not fair that three young boys have lost their mother, not fair at all. My condolences to all.
I am so sorry for your loss, Tammy and my heart goes out to her boys. These things can be so hard to understand. The quotes you have shared bring it all into perspective.

That is so tragic, Tammy. So very, very tragic. Those poor little boys are left without their mom and God knows they need one. I am deeply sad you and all their family. I hope friends and family members left will help them as they grow.Susan

Such a huge loss ~ so sorry to hear about this, Tammy.
oh tammy this breaks my heart. my prayers are with you all, and that there be a cure for cancer someday.
So sorry to read this Tammy. It must be so hard for the boys! This life is so fragile!
Oh Tammy, I am so sorry for your loss. Those poor sweet boys have a tough road ahead of them. Life just doesn't seem fair. I attended a friend's funeral on Wednesday. My second friend in two months to pass away from cancer. She was 45 and left three children, they are a bit older, but are still in need of a Mother. My heart goes out to you and your entire family.

So sorry for your loss Tammy and I will keep you all (especially those sweet boys) in my thoughts and prayers.
:-( I grieve for those children... to lose a mother when they're so young. I don't understand how this can happen. Hugs, Teresa
I am so sad for your loss. I lost my husband almost 1 1/2 years ago and I will never be the same.
There are no words for a time like this. Saying a prayer for them.
Dearest Tammy,
What a fate... leukemia is a battle that is seldom won. Sad for the boys indeed and for all her loved ones. It makes a terrible back pain diminish, compared with such a cruel disease. I stayed in the bed today till 7:00 PM and feel much better. Guess with warmth and rest I will fluff back soon.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
Such sad news...I'm so sorry. God bless those three sweet boys.

Love and blessings to you and yours,

There just has to be a master plan that we do not understand. I am saddened for her loss and for these boys. Blessings and prayers...

Hi... seeing this makes me want to cry... which I have been doing a lot of lately. I have no Christmas spirit... no tree going up this year. I will try to decorate some... we will see. We have no snow , the weather is warm and sunny. while nice, it isn't very Christmasy. Your blog is looking nice. love to you.
