CancerCompass message board discussion started by Amnia on 9/14/2006 http://www.cancercompass.com/message-board/message/all,6877,0.htm Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:00:00 GMT Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:00:00 GMT http://backend.userland.com/rss RSS.NET: http://www.rssdotnet.com/ Dear Everyone, SallySem, a fellow cancer compass user, wrote in the brain cancer sub-forum of a story to help children understand death and dying. The story is called "The Fall of Freddie the Leaf." It isn't just for kids - or maybe i am just a big kid - it touched my heart and brought a tear to my eye. If you have not seen this story before, it is a WONDERFUL, short (one page) story and is worth every second of the short time it will take you to read it. http://www.buddhistinformation.com/fall_of_freddie_the_leaf.htm Let me know what you think! -Amnia PS I have no idea why this story is on the web site it is on. It does not appear to have anything to do with Buddhism. Amnia Thu, 14 Sep 2006 00:00:00 GMT I've just finished to read the story of Freddie the leaf. It's simply wonderful. It touched my heart too. Thank you for sharing! Smilla Fri, 22 Sep 2006 00:00:00 GMT dear nicoletta, thank you for your kind words! i have a question - what sub-forum is this message thread in? i initially posted it in the main cancer forum but the next day it was not there. i thought the cancer compass people may have deleted it (i thought maybe i'm not supposed to put links in messages so i stopped doing that for a while). if you are reading it, i am guessing they may have just moved this thread to another sub-forum. i tried to find this thread a while back and couldn't and still can't find the forum this thread is in. (i am posting now only because you replied to it and i have email notification that takes me to the note but not the sub-forum it is in). Amnia Fri, 22 Sep 2006 00:00:00 GMT Dear Amnia, thank you again for letting us know about the story od Freddie the leaf. I found your message here: message board discussions - after treatment - emotional support. Bye:) Nicoletta Smilla Mon, 25 Sep 2006 00:00:00 GMT
