Dedeth:  I spent Saturday reading your book.    He was obviously literate, smart, poetic and wrote beautiful letters.  What a long complicated journey you made to be together.    How hard it must have been to come from the Philippines to a snowy place like Colorado.  And what a long and winding road it is to follow all the paperwork involved in Visas etc.  I think your relationship is unique and beautiful.  Who knows where life will take us and how we get there it just matters that we do.  Your book is a wonderful tribute to Pat and your journey here.  How hard it must have been to be married in the Philippines and then to have to wait to be together.  And how hard it is to do all the stuff it takes to make it happen when you are not wealthy.  Pat's persistence shows how much he loved you. Were you really a virgin when you married how extra special.  When I got to one of his last letters about his illness I cried.  For you and for me because I remembered Wayne being ill and losing him.  Regarding the dreams I have them often.  My friend in Mexico who is a psyc  True love doesn't die it just changes form and if there is a god we will see our loved ones again.  I can't say I believe that but I hope it is true.  You have a wonderful spirit and made the right choice and you have a beautiful daughter from that.  I am the only one left from my family as I didn't have any children but I had a wonderful man and so did you....laurie
