She grew them in her garden on the farm. and raspberries too! She told the doctors not to tell us how serious her diagnosis was as she wanted us to have hope (when there was none). We brought her strawberries, we tried to help her eat them. She said it was a different battle this time (second fight with cancer). Well, I understand it know but it still evokes great sadness in me. Strawberries, who would have thought. <br />Here's to your healing :)<br />Michcbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13862084875449191526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-77144658835334282572013-06-17T02:47:28.400-04:002013-06-17T02:47:28.400-04:00That's lovely, Dave.

But I was wrong, so very wrong. My strawberries will taste differently today...as I think of Ron...a soul that I met only because of your beautiful writing, Dave.
