Oh my heart breaks for you. A month is not long at all. It doesn't give the loved ones much time to wrap their heads around it. I hope that the life she had was good. She obviously did something right in raising such a kind daughter. My Dad also had had cancer before and beat it. It came back in a different area and they thought they could remove it all surgically, so for several months we thought it was all good. It turned out it had spread to the bone. They told us that without radiation he would only make it until Xmas, so he did the radiation and was gone a month later, anyhow. You just never know. I know that we don't know each other well, but if you ever want to talk privately, please message me. Those good days and bad days that you mentioned are how it's been going for me. I'm not looking forward to Father's Day coming up, but in general there are more good days as the months go on. Hang in there.No, she was ill for about a month before she lost her battle. Prior to this she had been diagnosed in 2012 with breast cancer. Fought that and beat it until recently it came back Thank you.

That's great, Dolly. I hope she looks just the way she'd want and just how you remember her. Do you have pictures of her? I am so happy that I have lots of pics of my Dad. They help me sometimes.

I feel your pain on the loose eyeshadow, but I have a couple of edes from prior collections that are loose and I've had no problems storing them. I have a drawer with tons of eyeshadows and I put them in there, too. I have also traveled with the shadows in my makeup bag and they didn't get anymore damaged.Received my Nordies package yesterday and my Fathoms Deep EDES was loose in the packaging. I turned it over and the entire shadow fell out into the palm of my hand. Can we say ANNOYED!? So now I'm afraid to store it because it will shatter if moved around to much. It now has a permanent home on my vanity, not in my eye shadow drawer with Lorelei and Sea Worship. Other than that little mishap I'm very pleased with the shadows and can't wait to use them

Not sure if this has been said or not, but if you missed LORELEI e/s and really want it, you can get it by mixing Superb and Glorify Extra Dimension Skinfinishes. The color is exact and the texture is very close.

Thanks, MAC ina. Its nice to get a hug. My family is kind of weird and we don't talk much, so most of my grieving has been done alone. It's horrible what cancer can do to people with the treatments and all. And it can be so fast. One summer we had an 80th birthday party for my Dad. He was healthy and had a great time. The next year on his birthday he had just found out the cancer had spread. Life can change so fast. That's why I try to remind myself to enjoy life and not take anything for granted. Including all of the nice people on Specktra! I love how everyone supports each other.
