My Best Friend

My sister-in-law was like a sister to me we hung out together a lot,
I even moved in with her to take care of my brother when he was having a hard time, she had to work to pay bills he was not able to work he had just
had a hip replacement done and he could not stay by his self in case he fell.
She had quit smoking 16 years ago and it was 2 late we lost my best friend
when she passed away , I was in rehab to learn to walk again and could not go to the funeral ad I hate that till this day.
I quit smoking 14 years ago and now I have damaged lung to show for that
My sis and I was talking she told me that we both did not quit soon enough
as far as i know I don't show any signs of cancer in my lungs and I thank
God every day for that , But I know that she is with my brother and my mom and dad in Heaven singing with the angels
Rest in peace my dear sis
