    Hold you in my prayers
    Lisa, this is a devastating news. I cannot stop crying. You've been such an inspiration on this board. I so wish that you can continue doing well. I know how hard it is at this moment. I will still pray for miracle on you. Please remember that I love you and so many people here love you.

    G'day Lisa
    I guess it goes way beyond sad and sorry. First and foremost I gotta say how proud I have been to know you. You have been a pillar of this community. I am sure that your family is equally proud of you. There are no guides for navigationg your way thru this disease. You get it you fight it and you live it 24/7. You have done it with grace and humour and above all always caring about the other suffereres. If only it was possible I would donate all my remaining time to you. Peace Ron.

    dear lisa
    you are such an inspiration to me and i am sure all of us.
    this is the saddest news and i will not stop praying for a miracle.

    the spirit in your fight, reflects your love of life, of your family.
    your children have been given the greatest lesson in life by your example in so many ways.

    My wish for you is just peaceful and loving days, today and tomorrow and for all your days.

    Just rest.

    love,
    Pete

    I'm so sorry
    I'm mostly just an occasional lurker here, but I have followed your posts over the years. I have always, and still do, admire your strength, courage and faith. It breaks my heart to see all you have had to endure.

    I have a close friend who has been precariously close to death this past month. I have been grateful to be able to talk to her, to hold her, to tell her I love her. I am glad that you have at least a few more weeks to say whatever you want to tell your friends and family.

    I pray that you are able to find peace these last few weeks. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through. And of course, like you, I will continue to hope and hold out for that illusive miracle that we are all searching for.

    I am so sorry about your news. I have been following your posts as I also have multiple lung mets and was interested in all you were doing to fight this.
    Even if God doesn't give you a miracle, know that He is with you always. May you and your family have peace with whatever happens.

    Like all the others I

    Lisa

    Like all the others I am speechless. When I started my journey you gave me hope and strength that I can walk this road, what ever I decided to do. I have looked up to you for answers and they were always there plus incouraging words thrown in for good measure.

    I know that you like to stay a little longer with your family, BUT my dear sweet Lisa, when you are to tired, remember God will take you home and we will all meet in that wonderfull place called heaven and be healthy and happy. You deserve to be healthy you fought a great fight and still do.

    You are a shining beacon to all of us, always ready with advice and kind words of incouragement. I thank you for being you from the bottem of my heart.

    I wish you and your family strength in the weeks and months to come.
    Remember you never walk alone, even in our darkest momenst God walks beside us always all the way.

    Many hugs and love and THANK YOU for being the wonderful woman you are.
    Hugs, Marjan

    Lisa,

    I don’t post often, but follow this forum regularly. You truly have been a model of grace and compassion for all of us. Despite all of your challenges, you’ve never complained, never stopped fighting, and never stopped helping others. Your contributions to this community have been immeasurable, and you will long be remembered. I’ll keep hoping and praying for a miracle…though perhaps the miracle has already come to all those who have been fortunate enough to have known someone as special as you obviously are. My heartfelt best wishes for peace and comfort to you and your family.

    Dear Lisa,

    Like others, my presence on this board has been in the background. I write rarely but read and pray always. You have been such a gift to me on this cancer journey. Many a night I have slept better because of your words. I will continue to mention your name and those you love to God often. My heart aches for a miracle for you. May you know deep peace and blessings galore.
    Hugs,

    Lisa, My Friend
    There are no adequate words to describe the anger and sadness I am feeling for you and your family. You have been and always will be a pioneer in your quest to help yourself and many others to fight this terrible disease. I remember many times how you stepped in to comfort Johnnybegood and me, even while facing ongoing barriers with your own illness and treatments. I truly do not understand "the plan" that God has for some. I know, however, that your faith is strong and for that, I am grateful. I, of course, will continue to hope every day for your miracle, and wish for comfort and peace for you and your family, and to echo the words heard here so many times, "Never Give Up".

    Luv,

    Wolfen

    An inspiration
    Lisa, I have very few words at a time like this. I agree with Rob - you truly have been a pillar of this community and a true source of inspiration for many. I respect and admire you deeply.

    Never lose hope
    Other men see only a hopeless end, but the Christian rejoices in an endless hope.

    Lisa- Just in shock. You've had such a rollercoaster of a fight with this disease I really thought you would be on the up hill again in no time. It truly saddens me beyond words to hear the finality in your post. I've been reading posts for two and a half years now and I don't want to think about you not being a part of this. You have made as much a contribution and positive impact here as any member ever has and your grace and courage has been one of the blocks in the foundation of this forum. I will continue to pray for you and your family, just for peace, in what ever the future holds. It's all anyone can hope for. If God's plan is to have you leave here I think I will imagine you left on your terms like Emily or Scouty and not due to cancer. If it should pass that you no longer post here I will not cry because we miss you, I will smile because we knew you. I will continue to be optomistic about your journey and look forward, as usual, to see you post again sometime. That is what hope is all about.
    God Bless....
