My Dad has passed and is now at peace

Hi all,

My father passed away quite peacefully on Wednesday. As I have mentioned, he was a 15 year survivor of PC.

He was able to visit his farm with my mom and me over the weekend. He clearly enjoyed it. My sister came into town and that night, he passed in his sleep.

Thank you all for your prayers, answers, support and community over the pass couple of years.

The fight is now yours. There have been so many advancements in treatment that none of you should ever give up hope. So many things available to you were not available to my dad so don't take this as a defeat, but actually as a victory over this dreaded disease. He will be classified as a survivor - and we would not have it any other way.

Peace-

Bridget Hust

    Bridget,
    I cannot tell you how terribly sorry I am for your families loss. My Prayers are with you all. My Father has just begun his journey with PC, and I know he is in a category of survivors made of brave and amazing men. Your Fathers' courageous path is one forged for all who will come after him-- and I will continue to keep him in my thoughts. Christie
