One of Barbara's many wonderful personality traits was her positive attitude toward her illness, which she understood was terminal and as the disease progressed was accompanied by very intensive pain!She had such a positive and strong Spiritual Relationship with her Lord, the Father, and it appeared she enjoyed a Daily Contact with this Positive and Loving Spiritual force that helped her through this very difficult time in her life.
