I received some sad news today and wanted to share a greatful experience I encountered in the Cancer Survivors Website. I have read the wisdom and thoughts of many on here, but connected with one.
I am not sure which specific cancer discussion board this should be posted on as she had multiple cancers. Unfortunately, I have to choose one, so I will place it in the the board I met her on.
Jo passed away Saturday morning. I will miss her and think about her daily, as I've done for the past few months. She was my inspiration when I felt like I didn't want to continue treatment. She taught me things about living with and dealing with cancer that I was afraid to ask. She was brave and self giving. Now, she has taught me about dying.
May God bless her and her family.
With the deepest Regards-
Diane
