While she is far too young to attend Comfort Zone, my niece who lost her mother in March is not. She is 12 and is dealing with the loss of her mother and being separated from her half sister who is 3 and with whom she is very close. I am going to give this to her father. I am so sorry for your loss and am sending both you and your daughter virtual hugs. .-= Kristina Brooke´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MomOnTheRise/~3/0_gVmQlc4ag/" rel="nofollow">Know the Facts: Bringing Home Baby</a> =-.

I feel your pain, as I too have suffered. One night I was in a "gypsy" cab on my home from work. It was very cold. To my surprise, the driver was a woman who looked very Ethiopian. She and I chatted as I was very interested in her. After a brief time of answering my questions, she asked about me and my life. She was horrified that I was a widow and with a crooked smile told me not to worry. She claimed that in her culture it is said that is your husband or wife dies, then they were not your true love. She further explained that my true was on his way and I would meet him shortly. I can't say that my late husband was not a true love, but I will say that my new partner is without a doubt my soul mate. Your new love, is finding his way to you and when you are ready, when you make the decision to love (if you do and if you don't that is your choice) he will be there to enrich your life. I believe in happy endings. I can't wait to hear yours. Peace. Love. Light. Peace Beloved. I feel your pain, as I too have suffered. One night I was in a “gypsy” cab on my home from work.

I can relate to her and what she is feeling so I'm happy and so proud of you for getting her what she needs early. I too had a step father come into my life, who my mother went on to have children with. There were many times then, and now where I felt like the "outsider", as though they were their own family and I was the odd one out. They all shared the same last name, I did not. Their dad was Brazilian, mine was not. So, they had their own cultural identity in place on top of everything else. It followed me into adulthood. So, my hats off to you for giving this attention early on so that Alana doesn't have to deal with a possible identity crisis. Loss...been there as well. I too lost my husband, this past October to suicide and went the whole therapy route with myself and my son. It's been a journey, but we are slowly making it. As soon as I am able, financially, I will be making a contribution to this wonderful cause. Take care, Traci .-= Traci´s last blog ..<a href="http://beautyinrareform.blogspot.com/2009/09/chase.html" rel="nofollow">The Chase…</a> =-. Hey Adiaha,

I am sure that you were exhausted by the end of your stay. It seems like a lot of work. It also appeared very rewarding! Thanks! I am sure that you were exhausted by the end of your stay.

I've had the opportunity to volunteer for Comfort Zone Camp as a photographer and videographer. I've seen the "magic" that takes place there. I'm so glad Alana was able to experience that.
