As Christmas approaches, we reflect on the year that was. For some of us, we've loved, laughed and sadly, we've lost. For me, 6 months have passed since losing Trin, and I still can't quite beleive all that has occured. I know it's happened, but it is still so outrageous to get my head around.
To all from MPA, and beyond, my thoughts are with you all at xmas, and I hope for nothing but the best in 2010.
Thanks to Herman and Lisa, and all of you, who have supported me, it really has meant alot.
Kind Regards,
Ang xo

As I sat in the Brisbane Support Group this morning, my heart starts to race, as it approaches my turn around the table to speak, and in true Ang fashion, the tears fell. I sit amongst a group of people, with a common factor, who have been brought together because of one evil, "melanoma". I somehow feel upset to have cried yet again, but surrounded with people who care, I knew it was alright. No one can ever truly explain how they feel, or what someone is going through, but I think in our own way, we have a pretty good idea. Some of us have lost, and others are fighting their own battles, but together, we become one, if only for that Friday morning in the month. I appreciate the kindness, words of support, and time that makes attending the group, worthwhile for me. By allowing a day in the month for me to be "sad" for a better word, or "reflect", is a controlled grief process in my eyes. I know some days are tougher than others, and I miss Trin like crazy, but memories are all I have left. Life if precious, a gift to be enjoyed and cherished, and until death knocks this close, we all take it a bit for granted. I have questioned my mortality, my life, my goals. I'm just taking it all in at the moment, and sadly as Trin's birthday approaches in March, these will be the times, that test the heart, as she's not here to celebrate with us. Thanks again to the Brisbane group, Herman, Lisa. I really do appreciate my few hours with you, and hopefully with time, it will get easier.
Kind Regards,
Angela x

A simple reflection, and appreciation of the friend she was, and will always be to me, Trinity, who would've been 32 yesterday, had Melanoma not entered her life. I miss her more than words, and can't beleive she's not here to celebrate with us, but, your memory will live on, and I will love and miss you, forever and a day. You will be forever young.

Hi Ang, every time I see you express yourself on this site I think of the true magic you bring with you. I never met Trinity but I do know that through you I feel as though I do know her. If one was to look up friendship in the dictionary a photo of you should be what is seen. In your case friendship has been so much more than words. You have shown real love and a deep commitment. As a survivor I would like to thank you for the support that you have not only offered to Trin but to so many. I am proud to say that I know you and love having you come to our meetings. You Rock.
