...the loss of a close friend or buddy is a very difficult time to get thru, sometimes they are closer in many ways than family....remember the good times and tell the funny storys to your other friends and family members....I lost one of my best runnin' buddies several years ago and you never forget, but it does get easier........

sorry to hear about your friend, cancer is now the number killer in the USA I read where 1.5 mil will come down with it this year and half will not live.

I know that God has provided us with a better place and your friend is looking down on you with a smile.

god bless and keep you my friend

Sorry for your loss.

Many times the loss of a close friend is worse than losing a family member.

Hang in there and remember the good times.

Halicat: In 1997 I lost my 30 year old fiancé to cancer. The first few months without her were nothing short of terrible, but I finally came to the conclusion that I should celebrate her life instead of making myself sick over missing her. The pain became bearable and I started living again.

Celebrate your friend's life, it's a much better choice than grieving!

Sorry to hear about you losing a close bud. Time is a great healer, but for now try to just be thankful for the great times you two shared. Your buddy would want you to remember him and the good times, but I'm certain he'd also want you to get on with living and enjoy what this great world has to offer...

you guys are right...
i know this sadness will pass in time ... as it did with my father,
it will get to the point where the memories of the past will be bright and todays grief will fade....Daves family has had so much pain from the loss of a mother, a sister, a sister in law and now a brother.... my pain comes from seeing their hurt.

time seems to go so slow when you are sad....

My mother died in 1985 of lung cancer at the at of 51. My father died of pancreatic cancer in 1990 at the age of 57. I do not smoke and get a prostate exam every two years. I would like to see my 60s or my 70s.

Time does heal.

My father passed away when I was 23.....right before my youngest son was born (32 years ago). He had a massive coronary. The sadness lessens, but I still miss him a lot......

My mother passed away three years ago on Jan. 28....after an overnight stay in the hospital due to dehydration from the flu. Aren't sure what happened. The hurt goes away, but you never stop missing.

My younger (and only) brother basicallly drank himself to death and died a week before his 38th birthday (he was 11 yrs. younger)....which was a week before my 50th birthday. I don't think I will ever get over the tragedy of his death......I still miss him

But I hope that that part of my family is together now and watching over me and my 4 sisters.

Time heals......but you never forget.
