Description
i do not know where to start, i'm so lost for words and so very hurting right now. my/our dear friend Blush/Susan has lost her very, very long and painful battle with cancer, not sure if it was friday or Saturday yet, i will be calling her son in Kentucy to express my sadness, and i have only reposted images maybe twice since being here, not much into that. but i'm so mentally drained at this moment and have lack of any idea what to create so i searched my gallery for something that fits my feelings for my dear friend. i cannot explain how sad i feel. she has had several bouts with this killer disease and did loose the battle with it. forgive for any mistypes or spellings, very hard to write with tears in the eyes, and this small azz comment box sure does not help. some of you know her by her extreame kindness and her top notch photography, in my honest view she was one of the finest photographers ever. i so much respected her work and kind heart. when she lost her husband Danny last year on June 15th i think she really had alot to deal with. but she is a angel in heaven now and i guess best of all if those words are right, she no longer ever has to suffer anymore. i ask god to take me instead of so many wondeful people on this earth from cancer. cause i feel i'm not really a good person. can't elaborate on that. my heart is broken and i feel Susan was my real lil' sister to me and i have lost a very dear family member, i cry, i cry, i cry. i know at times she mentions her condition to me and in comments on other fine works and on her posts when she did them. i recall a few years back some artist gave her crap about posting her condition and that so pissed me off. i honesty have prayed every day for her for several years now and still will.
i'm not going to link a post from my last image here, but will link my dear little sis's gallery link below, please, please visit and say a prayer for the Vessels Family, her son has lost both his parents in a short time and i do not know him, but i'm sure that pain is unbearable. i have never ever met her but like i mentioned she was a family memeber to me and i grief alot, back in 1999 i lost the dearest friend KIm and sweetheart and the love of my life, but never was a girlfriend. she was killed by a car in the street. and i feel equal pain and grief. and i'm not sure if i can create another beautiful image for Susan at this time, so i elected on this repost. forgive me. i completed a great image last night, but it does not convey the sadness for this moment, but i know dear Susan would still have loved it for this moment. i thank you all for reading this if you did and hope you can share a thought and a prayer for one of rendos best people ever. i will be sending a card to her son, and if anyone of you would like to do the same plz site mail me and i will share her kentucy address. just wish i had the cash to send flowers, unemployment sucks and still have not recieved a thing. i will post the image i made on Monday. then try and come up with another for my friend. her gallery link below. many thanks for the visit and thoughts.

i might catch some flack about posting the song by Eric Clapton below but right now. i feel so much grief and this song is so beautiful.
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way
Through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

I just saw Rods posting and learned of Susan's passing.... shocking.... she mentioned the sufferings in so many writings - I gave me a false sense of hope she'd out live us all. I'm thankful she is reunited with her Husband. ...I always loved seeing her animated butterfly avatar.

Hey Steve, sorry for your loss ... but there's one thing you must do now: Think about what Susan would want you to do. I'm sure, she doesn't want to see you crying. She enjoyed life ... and so you should do. Look at her images and you will see, that she found beauty in so many things around us. This is what she wants from her friends. Her fight was harder than the problems we have. So stay strong and honor her ... with your prayers, your art ... and your life!!!

Susan would be very touched to see your dedication to her. She thought the world of you from the comments I saw. Be comforted in the knowledge that she is no longer suffering and will live on in your memory and all of her wonderful art. Please give our heartfelt sympathy to her son when you talk to him. I feel you sell yourself too short, my friend. Everything I've seen and read from you indicates a dear and caring person who has managed to endure through some very rough times.

Rejoice in her lifted spirit. She will no longer suffer. Be sad for the loss you feel and the hole she has left. Then fill the hole with the good memories and your heart will be full again as you hold on to what is good and what she did to make you a better or more complete person.

I really don't think that someone who has written so eloquently about the loss of another can truly be a bad person. That being said I am sorry for her family and friends.

Sorry for your loss Steve, grief and death are one of most challenging parts of life we will need to deal with. Its never easy but you have to remember that to honour them best you need to be strong and celebrate there life even while you mourn there passing. It does her credit to see how many lives she has touched in such positive way. And we all know she will never truly be gone as the warmth and light she has brought to others continues to shine even though she has now passed on. We all will pass one day, sadly sickness and accidents can touch us all. All we can do is try our best give that love and understanding whenever we can and hope that when our time is here we have lived in a way that brings as much light to as many others as we can. Hang in there Steve, beautiful memorial. My heart goes out to you.
