My prayers are with you Jen and Brandie.

Mine as well.


I am one of the newer members of this community- but I can honestly say I am PROUD to be a part of the DIS Family today.

Lots of good thoughts today- this life is fleeting, we just need to all take care of and appreciate each other.

So true, and such a reminder of how precious every moment spent with the ones we love is.

Every day is a gift. Until a tragedy occurs in our life we sometimes forget just how each moment is precious.

No matter how difficult my day may be or what troubles I encounter I try to remember Today is a great day to be alive.

I am glad that I am part of the DIS community that is so supportive to each other.

Times like these are what really reinforce my love for the DIS. It's amazing to me that these "strangers" from all walks of life and all different opinions can come together like this and show how much we really care about these people. Thinking of Brandie and Jen during these difficult times.

Well said, Jen. I often find myself being angry/upset about silly things and remind myself what am I upset/angry about this in the first place? We have to remember that everyone has their days and the people who are there for you during those times are those who matter most.

It is sad to know that we lost members of this wonderful family, but reminds us of how grateful we are to know each other either personally or electronically. God Bless and Be Well.

I agree with all the above sentiments.

I have to say that after hearing of some of the recent tough news that DISers have been getting, I have been feeling a lot of sadness and sympathy for those who have suffered losses. However, I also feel frustration.

Frustration that I cannot do more.

I have never met Brandie in person, and she hasn't met me, but I feel like leaving messages on the boards is just not enough. Instead, I am so thankful for people like Jen, Dodie, and other DISers who basically are doing what I wish I could.

Thank you for acting on behalf of those of us who feel like family but don't quite share in that interpersonal connection that you have.
