I may have divorced his son but I never stopped caring for this man, my ex-FIL. He is such a good man, and I know he must be so lonely since his beloved wife passed last year, and now I have learned he is suffering from prostrate cancer. So this is for him...



You’re Very Special to Me

I want this message to put a smile on your face.

I want it to remind you that you have been on my mind.

I want it to tell you that I think you’re wonderful.

I want it to be a beautiful part of this day.

And I want it to help you remember -

every time you remember it in the days yet to be -

that this message was sent to you…

just because you’re very special to me.

-Poem by Collin McCarty



Be merciful to me, O LORD,

for I am in distress;

my eyes grow weak with sorrow,

my soul and my body with grief.

-Psalm 31:9
