Goodbye 'Uncle' Kieran


I've waited to post this because it's just so painful. We lost a dear friend on Monday night... Kieran Lynch. And while it's so sad and so painful for us that he passed, it is also a blessing for him, because if you are a regular reader then you know that Kieran has been battling a horrible, ugly and incurable disease known as ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) And you probably also know that the end is always death and that for those suffering, it's the only relief.
I met Kieran through my husband, Michael. They were friends first. But from the first moment I met Kieran it was like I had known him my whole life. We feel into an instant friendship and that's just how it went right up until the end.
Kieran was a special man. I would love to write more, but I'm having a difficult time with this right now. I will try to write more later.
