Hi

 

I just wanted to update on my partner.  She passed away July 10th, 2013 from a bowel obstruction.  

 

I really want to thank everybody that has helped support me through this journey.  As much as I miss her and love her, and as much I didn't want her to leave me yet, I am glad she is in no more pain.  I am glad I was able to help her pass with digity and able for her to feel much love.

 

Thank you,

Jenn

    So sorry

    I'm so sorry to hear this news.  I am also a caretaker, my husband was diagnosed in December, 2012 with stage II colon cancer and just recently finished 6 months of chemo.  We go back in a few weeks for the follow up appt.  We're both getting kind of nervous about that. 

    I hope your love for her and your memories can get you through the hard times.

    Linda
