After spending the last 5 days with Michele here, I grew to realize how much this friend means to me and colleen.

We did nothing special, although the girls went on a train ride and an back-road adventure by car.

If it is possible for a man to love two women then this is it!

It will be at least a year till I get to See Michele again face to face, and even though she just left this morning, I miss her already.

Colleen managed to take off from work so the three of us could be together.

There is a comfort level I have with Michele that only Colleen tops.

I was a big boy and did not cry this time on parting, something that is very difficult to do, as I am emotional about those I love.

Michele is so sick with M.S. it just pains me to watch her suffer so, yet she goes on and on raising her three lovely children, she is determined to live long enough to see the youngest, Jacob on his own.

We will start planning the next time we get together in about six months {the plan, not the seeing each other}

With her leaving went another small piece of my heart, but that's ok as she will guard it with her life

I miss you Michele, safe passage to home and till we meet again.. kisses all over your pain filled face.
