I enjoyed Lesley’s letter on friendship in the latest More.  I too have lifelong friends that are so precious to me.  Number 1 friend would be Becky….she and I have been friends since first grade in 1955.  Since graduation from highschool, we have never lived in the same town but have always kept in touchl.  Number 2 and 3 are friends who I met while working at the same company back in the 70’s….Diana and Judy.  We had such fun times together over 10 years, helped each other through thick and thin, and then I moved away in 1986. The year after I moved away, they flew up to see me and since then, we have all kept in touch, sharing our life stories and experiences. One of these "best" friends has been battling cancer for 7 years now so I know all to well that lifelong friendships are so important.  Girl therapy….can’t be beat!  Thank you Lesley for letting me share my story.
