mominva, yes. But I hesitated to raise the subject because of the sudden end to LTS's posts.

^^which is why I posted here and not the other thread.
It's so eerie, sometimes I feel like LTS's spirit is being channeled through sunriseeast.

Coming here this morning, searching for and finding, wisdom, comfort and strength. May all of those living with challenges have the strength of community that LTS inspired.

Cherry Blossoms and Latetoschool will always be interlocked in my mind.

Here's to Spring, rebirth and the wonderful memories of latetoschool.

She was a great parent and a fine correspondent here among her peers, brave and honest and not forgotten.

An acquaintance was recently diagnosed with brain cancer. In her Caring Bridge journal she mentioned being fitted for her mask. I was immediately taken back to LateToSchool description of her mask and the ordeal. Such brave women!

Sometimes I think I'm having a tough day and then I remember; no, I'm not.

My dear friend passed away in September from her second bout with breast cancer. She left behind three beautiful daughters whom I have known since they were little. I often thought of latetoschool when Joanne was dealing with her illness. She had a wonderful blog that made me laugh and cry ... like latetoschool's posts. In fact, I recall being out for a walk with my friend right after latetoschool passed away. Who would have thought that soon after that, my friend would begin her own journey.

Here's to our memories of latetoschool, and of all our friends who have lost their own battles ... even as they won the hearts of so many.

I think of red high heals when I think of Latetoschool. I wonder how her daughter is doing?

This thread started before I was using CC for anything other than pure factual information. I hadn't even looked at parent cafe back then. I read this whole thread today. It is an intense journey when read straight through.

As my cherry trees explode with blossoms in the weeks to come, I give thanks to those who came, who lived, who taught.
