Cleo

Cleo is my friend, we have known each other for 6 years. Cleo was diagnosed with a brain tumor the Monday before thanksgiving. they operated the Monday after thanksgiving and removed 80 percent of it. It was Cancerous. Cleo is now in the hospital in intensive care. She is not there, just her shell.
Cleo is a wonderful person 71 years old and swims 4 to 5 times a week. Belongs to the Methodist Women's Society, and really enjoys life. She has 3 grown children, whom I am thinking love her very much.
I miss Cleo very much, I am feeling really sorry for myself that I have lost her. This is not the first person I have lost. I just wanted to say that it does not get any easier to lose loved ones. What I am trying to say is, I don't feel sorry for Cleo, I feel sorry for myself and anyone else that loved her.
I will miss her banana bread, and meeting at Teds to go to the beach, those spontaneous hugs and phone calls. Talking about her up and coming trips with her sister Patty. The world is a much lonier place today
