Just found this out,Cindy Sheehan's mother died over the
week end.My email has been screwed up so dont know if anyone posted this earlier but just talked to
Cindy and her mom who suffered a stoke while Cindy was at Camp Casey died friday from the effects of the stroke.
Can we all send her a sympathy message????
If you post on here I will send it to her.
Cindy has been very sick for 2 weeks with the flu and has been in bed for a week.

29. So Sorry To Hear About Cindy's Loss
She is a wonderful person and doesn't deserve all these heartaches. You gave me the chance to meet Cindy and it was a moment I cherished. I wish her all the best and will keep her in my prayers.

41. Dear Cindy
You lost your mom
I'm sorry to see
I hope you lead
us to victory

Get the troops
out of Iraq
and help the poor
living down the block

to put the Republican
machine asunder
guard your purchasing dollars
don't give them to GOP
contributors to plunder

then we all see
the GOP deaths
and wonder
why do they have
so much power?

Well wake up people
and see what we have done
stop funding the errorists

and the battle shall get won.

Noone can replace your mom Cindy
I wish her forver peace and rest

continue your activism
in her name
and do your best

Give no money to the contributors
of the GOP and someday our poor
disabled the elderly shall remain free.

Defund the right and kick them out
with all your might.

May your mother rest in peace
you have more work to do Cindy
do it in her name!

7. Cindy, time to take care of your health. You've been a driving force
Edited on Wed Feb-14-07 12:25 AM by caligirl
behind the swing in attitude in this country toward the war and idiot son. You helped in a huge way to get dems back in power by planting those early seeds of change.

You could probably afford a week or two off. Sorry for your loss, get some rest.

25. Cindy you gave my daughter a big hug in Milwaukee -Oct. 06.
She was so very happy to finally get to hear you speak. But as a Mom I must say it was such a happy moment for me to walk over across the street to find her hugging you. She keeps her photo of the two of you on her study desk. She says you are her inspiration. As a mom I'm so glad it is women like you who inspire my child. She is eighteen today. She is my valentine baby. Please get better, and know of our sadness for the loss of your mother.

As absolutely crucial as your work is, you can't sustain it unless you are sustained. I hope you will deeply receive the outpouring of support so many thousands of us offer to you, by our words and deeds and in our hearts.

You are a treasure.
