Just yesterday, Sandy posted this comment to a mother of a seven year old with type 1 and other issues. She always was the one to reach out to those members in the most need, and all the while she was suffering greatly.

Sandy was a rare one ....She was always putting others first. We need more like her. She once told me ;if she was given a choice of not being a diabetic but giving up all her friends on tudiabetes ,she would say no thanks,I'm staying with my friends!

She will always be a part of us. She had a big heart and loved us so much.

Hi Beth,
I missed your birthday by seconds. I am so sorry. I wanted to tell you HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was it a good one? I am so mad i didn't get on here earlier in the day. I wanted to celebrate a birthday with you and laugh and giggle and make squishy sounds and gobble up cake, until the booze ran out. There was booze? Wasn't there? And I missed that too????????????????? Now what are we going to do?????????? Plan a road trip you say?????????? How about tomorrow on the 3rd??????????????? Then we can bug Debb. Can I ride your broom????????????????? Or am I still stuck with my cane?????????? Rats !!!!!!!! I am sorry I missed your day by seconds. I will do my best to make it up to you. Happy Birthday to you Dear Beth. Happy Birthday to you. Love you. Big Hug. Blessings be to you Dear Beth.

Hi Beth,
I hope your birthday was good. I am sorry I was so silly in leaving your message. I just wanted to make you laugh and i wish we could have gotten together and played. That would be so fun.
It is so good to have you back with us again. I know you never left us but to be able to talk to you again is very good.
How are you feeling dear? Some things are so hard to get through and pain comes in many ways. I am always with you too
I love your little witchy on a broom. That truly touches my heart. Please know that i love you and anything I can do to help would make me happy.
I wish you a good day.
Blessings be to you

She did not judge me for being Wiccan, she just accepted me for who I was and loved anyway.

She wrote this sweet note to me on January:

:You are so welcome Andreina. You and Manny are such a huge part of my heart and you mean so much to me. I truly believe our family is so great because of the two of you Our loving support for each other is the way you have shown us. When you read through the messages you can see the same things from people from all over the world. So you know that the REAL message is reaching everyone. By this time next year we will probably double again. And each of us edcuates someone else. You see how your dream is growing?
Loving hugs to you both :

"It was so great to hear from you. I think of you often and wonder how you are doing......
Thank you for reminding me about the new members. I have been trying to get to as many new members as possible. But I am forever seeing something in the new person's page that sets off something in my head and I get so chatty that I don't get to a lot of people per day. We have so many wonderful people here, it is a real blessing to be able to talk to them. Speaking of blessings, I had occasion today to sit down and think for a while. Sometimes I just need to stop and actually put effort in to center me and remind me of things that are important. I was doing some praying at the time, and asked God to help me to list the things that are really special to me. Right away, your name came up and it made me smile. You are such a good friend and I am grateful to have your friendship. I feel like I have neglected you a bit and I don't mean to. Just to know you and be able to talk to you gives me such a warm and peaceful feeling inside. There are a few others I am writing to also to tell them how glad I am for their friendship as well. Before I came to TuDiabetes, I talked to people, but not the way I am able to do on here. Marie, I am so happy you are my friend. You are such a warm and talented person and have such a great personality I am really glad to know you. I am wishing you well and asked God for a special blessing for you today. I am hoping you feel it soon. --Saundra"
