Comments on: Friends in time of crisis http://erraticsouls.com/friends-in-time-of-crisis/ Our Philosophy of Blogging: To write what we will in whatever way we choose, without fear of regret. Our meanderings may wander 'erratically' at times, and there is certainly no certainty we may not change our mind, but one thing is absolute, we will always be honest to ourselves...

your post leaves me weeping, and wondering how life can be so cruel. I hope- indeed- that you shall always be with James.

I can say I have the perfect husband, lover, soulmate and a friend. He is everything you can imagine in a man. When I look at him I can’t keep my eyes dry. I just cry because I love him so much. We spend every second with each other and we do everything together. We do not have rules or household tasks or the 'him and her' thing. We just do what we think needs to be done and that is that. The natural way of living together in a peaceful and balanced way. We discuss all things that are important and together we make decisions if needed. Never ever did we argue about things ever... James and I are like one person equal and considered, thinking beyond the thoughts. Erratic as we can be, we just say let’s go for a drive without knowing where we go but just get things we want like coffee for on the road and we are off to netherl and. The Dales or Lakes, does not matter. We enjoy what we do. We enjoy just being together and we do not have to speak or make conversations we just click. We are just so in love. My life was hard though and I always thought by the time I get happy I die.. And so I am.. But I can say that I die happy with all my heart because of my loving James.... I love you James and I never leave you ever - I stay with you beyond. James, my wonderful husband without you I would be totally lost.

Again, all of you highlight that friendship and support comes in many different forms and from many different sources. Sue thinks she is not a friend [ just so you know - you are wrong Sue:) ] And even though none of us have ever met and may not see ourselves as 'friends' per se, we are very touched by your kind words and feel you close to our hearts. Friendship always has a beginning somewhere... Thank you for your comments. Again, all of you highlight that friendship and support comes in many different forms and from many different sources.

But I must say, more than the solution I sought it was the pain you and Anja are currently going through that touched me the most. Her courage and kindness towards others that too in times when she herself needs it the most make her a special gift from God. I wish you both strength and courage in these trying times. Regards, Preeti Dear James,

Friends and family will bow out of the picture, some quickly, some when it really gets difficult. Some will try to come back as if nothing happened; others will, out of shame, never return. Those with depth will stay with you; sometimes you will even crave a little space from them. What I learned was how to be a better friend. You do not know me; we met when you helped me with a technical problem; however, my thoughts and energy are with you. It is a horrible time, but savor every minute.

When I was diagnosed people stopped calling me or coming over to visit. I asked a few of them why and they told me they coudn't handle it. Others said they did not want to 'invest their emotions." What ever their reasons, it still didn't feel good. At least they were honest. I am sorry you are having to deal with this. But, I am so glad that there are those that are actually being there for you and you are Anja are not alone. She sounds like an absoute angel here on earth and with her passing we will all be poorer because of it. My thoughts are with you. I know how much this hurts.
