Very Sad News

I just received an email from Chelle. Suzanne aka Liquid passed away Christmas Eve.

Most of the bloggers who have been with me most of the time know that she and I were very good friends and as close as any two people 800 miles from each other could be. Most of the people that I blog with come here, and I come to them as a result of my online friendship with Suzanne.

This is not news I want to hear on Christmas, but I do believe that she is with the very person whose birth we celebrate today.

Pray for Suzanne's parents, her brother, her children, and her many friends.

Thank you for your friendship, Suzanne.

Rest in peace.

There are times when we live a lifetime, and never meet such a friend, who accept you for who and what you are ... she was loved, she is loved, and will never be forgotten.

My heart hurts at the lost of this beloved one, but I wish her a happy journey.

Cliff. My prayers go out to not
just her friends and family but
all of us.
And people wonder why I'm such
a Gringh.

I am in TOTAL shock...she came to my blog and left some of the most comforting and encouraging comments. She even posted a blog about me and the disease I'm fighting to generate more support. This is so sad, I'm just in shock. I pray God will minister to her family, that they are comfort and peace would be theirs.

My God...this is just so sad.
Does anyone know if Big jeNN knows?

Cliff,

I was stunned when I learned of Suzanne's passing. I'd been reading her blog, enjoying her photos and awed by her poetry for some time. She would leave comments at my place from time - "thanking" me for the laughs and saying that she needed it.

We may have lost a friend, but I can smile and say "Heaven has gained an angel."

I was so shocked to find out about Suzanne.

While I didn't know her as well as some of you, I still felt her touch in my life and she'll be missed!

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

Bananas and Sleep Apnea

First thing I want to do is welcome all the good folks from Australia who are checking me out as a result of Google searches. I recently wrote a post on sleep apnea , discussing my history with it and my new CPAP machine. Because of this and the name of my blog, this is the top site google lists when somebody types "bananas sleep apnea" into the search line on Google. All of the sites I have seen, that were not the usual sites that come here, ended in "dot au" which I know as Australia. Normally the only hit from down under is by my good friend David McMahon. The reason for the search is that a research team in Australia has found. as a result of a study, that drinking a banana smoothie may assist in easing conditions that cause sleep apnea. Phospholipids, or fatty acids, in bananas stay active in the mouth for six hours and may keep the throat open, therefore reducing the risk of choking. Further studies will expand to those, like myself, who need a breathing machi...

Why?

What I'm posting now is with the blessing of Chelle. Chelle is the cousin of Suzanne's husband, Richard. I had gotten the impression from both of them that they were about as close as sisters. Suzanne had been a friend of mine since I had discovered one of her blogs in July, 2006. We would make reference to each other on our blogs and would have dialogue via email quite a bit. It was no surprise to me that she was friends to many other bloggers as well. I felt it was quite an honor to be held in as high esteem as I was. We even talked to each other on the phone on occasion. I felt as we had known each other for a long time. I also knew that Suzanne was having some personal problems, much of which had to do with a very troubled marriage. I would let her bounce things off me, and I would send her some encouragement. While she was going through some of her marital problems, she made herself available to give me a lift when I needed it. My son was having some problems of his own a...
