Goodbye BFF

Sad days lately.  One of my angels that helped get me through the entire transplant experience (in fact, one that noticed that something was wrong to begin with) is moving back to her hometown.  I know this is something that she has wanted for a long time, and I knew it was a possibility, but the day has finally arrived. 

Thank God we live in the age of technology!  Between text messaging, email, and video conferencing we will be able to stay in touch.  But...it won't be like it was before...knowing that if I had a problem I could call and she'd come running.  There is something about knowing you have that security blanket that makes you rest at night.

I've got other friends and family who I could call, but they are very involved in their jobs now.  BFF's life and mine were somewhat similar, so whenever one of us needed the other, it was a simple text or call and an evening with a 'rita away.  I'll miss that.  I"ll miss that alot.

But, it is time she spread her wings and fly solo for a while, and probably time for me to step out of the nest myself.  I'm looking around for a time filler that won't be too expensive.  One can only dream what fate will provide.

So, good luck Lisa!  Chat with you, one way or another, soon!
