    Hi Everyone. My name is Rob I am Anne's husband. Anne lost her battle on July 8 at a beautiful hospice not far from our home. She left this world in my arms at 2:45 am. She maintained her optimism and sense of humour to the end of her life. She had excellent care. She loved all of you. This forum and your messages sustained her for much of this journey. For that I will thank you from the bottom of my heart. For those of you fighting, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Never have I appreciated the simple things of life as I do now. Enjoy each moment, and continue to support each other. I am sending our family's love to each and every one of you. Rob

    Dear Rob
    Your sweet Anne, our sweet AnneCan was a shining light here on our forum, she was so sweet and wonderful to us. The tears are sliding down my face as I write this, I, we, shall miss her so very much. You and your family have our support and love. We loved her very much. I'm so sorry for your loss,our loss. I just spent time going through my email and seeing notes from her, she cared so damn much for us all. She was quite the woman, Rob and I'm so glad you had her and she had you in your lives.

    good bye dear anne
    dear rob and family,

    it was wonderful to know anne, she helped me so much with my battle.
    your loss is the grestest but it sounds like she was very well loved by you
    and all of us, so that may give you some solace.

    i am scuba diving in fiji, on a great family holiday at volivoli diving the bligh waters, well i found out about anne's passing this morning and all day i have been sombre. i spent a few hours today reflecting on annes passing while watching some amazing sights of our seas. annecan was a real angel, now i hope she and you can have peace, and all of us here.

    love and hugs,

    pete

    Rob,

    Please accept my condolences on the loss of Anne. Even though I didn't know her in person, she very much affected me and was very kind and helpful. She shall truly be missed. My heart is heavy, but knowing she's singing with the angels now helps a bit.

    God bless you and the rest of the family during this very difficult time,
    Lisa

    Goodbye Anne,
    i don't post here often. in fact i said i would never post here again. but i do still read these boards now and then. because there are folks i care about here. and Anne topped the list. Anne was in every thread, giving support and knowledge. i noticed she wasn't posting as much and knew that was not typical Anne. so i knew like probably a lot of others she was not doing well. i never saw her complain about herself. she always gave. she was so special to me. she answered the first post i ever made. she helped me get to my first chemo treatment because she understood. i'll never forget her. RIP Anne, you made an impact on me. my condolences to you and your family. i'm so sorry.

    Dear Rob:

    I am very very VERY sorry for both you, and the two kids! I wish I could fully expressed how I feel...another angel up in there...Anne was an amazing lady that I've got to know through this forum...she helped me so much with my battle of losing my Mom...I know she must be very happy because she doesn't suffer anymore and because she can reunite with her dad. She was like me...she emailed me how she also wondered about how her dad thinks about how she decided to live her life...how he would be proud of her...he her dad would like you...although you would be probably scared of him first. :) And that made her smile always...I know, these senseless sentences I'm jotting down here won't help you in any way, or your two kids...all I can tell you and to them...be strong! I know...easier said than done, but...I know...it won't be easy...and no...it won't go away...but we have to put aside our selfishness and not wanting them back...they would just suffer. But I was somewhat relieved to hear that she maintained her full optimisim and sense of humour to the end of her journey! She did have a good sense of humor...even here on the board! I will miss her and will think of her! I will never remove her from my buddylist here...she'll be always with me. And, most importantly, she will be always with you and with the kids!
    Please take care,
    Sophie

    So sorry...
    Rob, I am very sorry to hear this news. Anne and I started this round of chemo on the same exact date. Mine is a mop-up chemo. I am not sure what Anne's was - if she still had cancer or not at the time she started - but my heart goes out to you. May God bless you and your entire family.

    Dear Rob
    I don't know if you can grasp the sincere well wishes and pure sadness that is posted here. I have been away from this board for awhile for other reasons and check in occasionally I am so sadenned by the news of annes passing she was so good to me and so many other people. I hate this disease it has taken so many beautiful people that I have met here just since may 2010 and anne was most definately a beautiful person.
    My heart goes out to you and your family. God Bless

    my Dearest Rob
    Rob....my name is Maggie and I live in Owen Sound Ontario.....every summer.....partially to escape cancer we journey up to a shack in the woods near Sault Ste Marie....we are usually gone for 3 months and there is no electricity there.....

    Rob each year i come home to find dear dear members of this community gone....I just got in the door and searched for Anne's name.....

    Rob I cannot tell you how this saddens me....Anne was so wonderful....sweet, honest and kind.....but you that....please accept my deepest sympathies Rob

    anne and i actually talked about getting together.....it's only 3 hours away but we never did it....

    with great love and sadness
