Sisters Heart to Heart

From the time that we were little,
I knew you’d always be
Not just a loving sister
But a caring friend to me.

A shoulder I could cry on,
A helping hand in times of need,
A cheerleader to lift me up,
My angel in both word and deed.

We told each other secrets;
We giggled and we cried.
We shared our joys and sorrows--
We were always side by side.

We have a very special bond;
I knew it from the start.
You’ll have my love forever--
We’re sisters, heart to heart.

-Oliver Wendell Holmes

I'm not a creative writer, but when I found this poem, I knew it was written for my twin sister and I. We have always shared more than just a womb, we share a unique bond that most siblings will never understand. Sometimes life throws you curveballs that you wish you could throw right back. I wish what I were feeling right now was just a dream, however, it's LIFE. There are never enough answers to LIFE's questions and how they have affected my family this week. My identical twin sister has been diagnosed with a brain tumor that may have gone unoticed for several years. She only started having symptoms a few weeks ago and the tumor is taking up residence in 1/4 of her brain. My twinkie is the hardest working person I know and also the strongest! I know she will make it thru this! If God is listening...you have ALOT of explaining to do mister! I will be flying down to GA to be with my family and sister for her surgery next week. Please keep us in your thoughts...

FYI-no furter card/gift orders will be accepted at this time and I have contacted those of you who have pending inquiries. I know you will understand...
