    LuvinLife2, Kathy/Kathleen P, passed away March 12, 2014.  

    Kathy brought cheer to a lot of people here with numerous cheerful and encouraging posts in 2009-2011, ~1100 IIRC, unfortunately lost when she felt overtrolled and left.  She returned July'12-Sept'13, a more muted, cautious contributor.  I especially value her comments on her years of extended experience with xel-/folf-/-iri + IV Vitamin C (+K3)  that she added, to stay effective and on treatment with Folfiri when she had been ready to quit. I think she will help others for years to come.

    Bump up...

    because it's Memorial Day, and I want everyone to see and remember.  

    OK, we don't really need a list. Most of these folks are in our thoughts one way or another, many times .

    List

    So many friends lost to his horrible disease, but thank you Sue for keeing them in our thoughts so that their stories of courage and words of encourgement will stay with us forever.

    I remember that Craig once mentioned that he had lost over 300 friends over the years; and now that he has joined them, I'm sure that he's been telling them some great stories up in the heavens.  :)

    I hope that all of our American friends had a nice Memorial Day weekend with their loved ones.

    Thank you

    Dear Sue,

    Thank you for keeping the list.

    It is difficult to read the names of all those not still with us, yet we also don't want to forget what each brought to this "community".

    May they forever be held in our hearts.

    Marie who loves kitties

    Thank you

    Thanks, Sue, for the remembrance.  I don't visit here too much, it makes me too sad to read about everyone's struggles and brings back too many bad memories.

    My Brother April

    My brother passed away last month.  He was only 52 and lasted only 5 months after diagnosis.  My heart still breaks for his loss.  Sad for us all.  Sad to see all the names listed.

    2014 was such a depressing

    2014 was such a depressing year and this year isn't looking much better.  May the list this year just stop and may we all not be on it (knock on wood, throw back some anxtioxidants and  juju dance before the next scan).  It's a very harsh reality sometimes.

    Yours was a hard one, no time

    Yours was a hard one, no time to think, nevermind really react and figure things out.  I hope you are having some good days mixed in with the harder ones.  I lost a brother and I know how difficult it is.
