  ...The opportunity to be at a wedding last Friday as an honorary 'mother' of the bride. When my own daughter died 5 years ago, I thought my life was over as well. But this wonderful couple has included me - right down to seating me as a 'mom' and buying me a mother's bouquet. The bride is the daughter of my best friend - who has stuck with me and helped me in my time of grief. This is another demonstration of his caring spirit. For which I am also very grateful. Dara J
