Lucinda you have no idea how moved I am by this image. We have talked about Leslie so much and I know what you both are going through now. I'll save my thoughts for when we talk but for now will just say this image of you two has almost moved me to tears.

LOVELY STORY :)

the heart is a wonderful thing, it has so much room to love so many but there are some people who own your whole heart and I can tell she is one of those people. Beautiful picture, poem and testiment to your bond

Beautiful poem, nice to see you with Leslie! :)

I knew your sister had some health problems but I didn't know what they were. Its a tough burden but I am happy to hear she is doing well. Your poem shows the unbreakable bond between you two. I will keep a good thought. Spring is just around the corner. Enjoy your visit.

Absolutely sweet my friend...very touching, just adorable! I'm happy that I can say that you are my friend!

This is such a touching image and story about your sweet sister. Very best wished for her and you. :-)

Wonderful tribute to your closeness. Grea that you see her soon!

Chi vuole bene non è mai solo ! Bella la foto , ma soprattutto belle le parole allegate che parlano di sentimenti buoni e belli. Spero che tutto vada sempre meglio anche per Leslie .Buona domenica, Lucinda

I hope she will win her fight!! touching poem!!

emouvante photo et texte!!

I only know you through your photography, but that shows warmth, and having read this, that warmth is reflected in your writing, very best wishes to you both.

Beautiful words for your sister Leslie. Glad she is doing well & have a great visit!!!!!

Outstanding! Well Done!

This is wonderful, Lucinda! What a charming photograph, and your poem is beautiful. It's not easy to capture a relationship in just a few lines, but you've managed it effortlessly.

Beautiful. I wish you and your sister the best!!

very beautiful, i'm speechless !!!

I now understand why you first wrote me Lucinda and I thank you for being concerned enough about my health to tell me then what concerned you. I am so grateful that I didn't have what your sister had, even more I am grateful that you shared your very warm and loving words and that your sister is doing well. I hope you continue to share the news about her, you feel like family now and I send my best wishes to Leslie for continued good health and news. I didn't have the warm relationship with my sister that you have so its really a joy for me to see yours proudly displayed here. The words are perfect, the image so cute, the love so evident that this is just about the best thing I have seen/read in a long time. I still have not resolved my issues with my secret ailment but you know, this gives me courage to face it. I may not have family living close but my family on here is just the best! Bravo on your most beautiful work! and big hugs your way!!!

Lovely sentiment in both the photo and the narrative, Lucinda. I didn't know you had a sister previous to this upload, but I wish her the best. In retrospect, I wish I had had a sister. Had three brothers, though. And, which is which in the photo?

A very moving poem and sisters really are the best friends. I'm so glad that your sister has had a good outcome with cancer and I hope you have a great time together soon.

excellent dedi and nice words ! great picture too !

Adorable picture. I hope your sister kicks that nasty disease once and for all. Having a loving, caring sister like you, must certainly make her recovery a whole lot easier for her. What a lovely poem you've written, I hope you've sent a copy to her (I'm sure you have).

What a beautiful sentiment and wonderful honor of your sister! I love the photo!! I understand how you feel. My sister (meowserific) and I are best friends. We think so much alike we should've been twins :) I recently moved away but we are still close at heart (and talk every day!). Don't know what I would do with out her. I pray Leslie continues to do well and that you enjoy your visit in the spring! Nothing like sisters! Thanks for warming my heart on a cold winter's day!

a beautiful picture, beautiful words both in poetry & prose, and I wish your sister all the light in the world, I'm glad she's doing well. (And glad you visit each other miles apart.) I hope Leslie is wholly triumphal over her cancer, and wish you both a terrific visit in the Big Apple. A lovely upload with beautiful feelings, and a lovely oh-so-typical shot of two siblings just doing life together. Beautiful.

This is beautiful. And made me think of my own sister, she is two years older than me of course I never let her forget that fact lol.. but while we live across the country from each other her in Sacramento California and me here we remain as close as ever... I wish you two a wonderful time this spring what fantastic news.

Sisters have such a special bond. I have two younger sisters and we are all very close, and get to see each other several times a year. What a treasure that is. May Leslie continue to be healthy.

The picture is wonderfull, but the words are so special and unique to you and your sister. I feel very privileged to have had this glimpse into your life. I hope you have a great time in NYC with this obviously special lady.

A very beautiful image and writting. It is a hard road to travel, not just health wise, have traveled this road before. It warms my heart to see that she has the support needed, my thoughts are with you, your sister and all whom support her.

Excellent!!

Oh what a beautiful prose and dedi for your beloved sister, I shed a tear when I read it. I was so sad to read of your sister's cancer, and I wish her well for the future and hope she continues to recover. She will be over the moon when you finally meet up again in the spring, that in itself could be only the best medicine for her. take care, warm hugs Jane xx
