So sorry
I am saddened to hear that Rafael has lost his fight. It's at times like this that I am at a loss for words, other than to say that my heart breaks for you. I can feel your pain in your writing as I know how dedicated you were to Rafael. I also wish you had been able to really enjoy the "American dream" but unfortunately none of us know how long that dream will last.
Now is the time to lean on your family and friends for support and strength. Always remember the good memories of your time together and hopefully this will help you at this most painful time.
My prayers go out to you and your family,

I am truly very sorry for your loss. I feel as though I have also suffered a loss. Reading your posts over the last year or so has been so helpful to so many people, including myself. You are so young to have to deal with all of this. And Rafael was so young to be taken from this world. I agree cancer is a horrible thing. I pray every day that God will give some doctor the answers to cure it.
God bless.

I'm so sorry to hear about this, Nubis. I'll be keeping you and your husband in mind as I continue my own journey, and hope that my caregiver loves me as much as you love Rafael. Thank you for allowing us to travel with you for a while.

I am so sorry for your loss.
Like many others, I feel I've come to know you and Rafael a little from your posts. It is so clear how much you have loved him and will continue to love him. For right now, just take care of yourself and leave any big decisions about your future until this shock wears off a little.
Again, I am so sorry and I wish you peace.0 -

Nubis,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Rafael fought a long and hard battle against a tough opponent, he is at peace now.
I also wish you peace and prosperity for the road that lies ahead of you, the spirit of Rafael will always be with you.0 -
Sad
I have read your responses to many peoples concerns on this site....one thing that can not be taken away, yet should be embraced is that I am certain you have helped very many suffering people on this site through your experience with the cancer/treatment/hospice process and the wisdom of life that you have shared through every email.
We will always be grateful for you folks.
Thankyou!

I think it is great that you
I think it is great that you are going to channel your grief into positive actions and help beat the disease. Nothing will bring Rafael back; but his name will forever be connected to the cause. Good for you and don't leave us here! I'm sure that talking will help.
My condolences...

Nubis, remember that he will always be with you, and that you have memories that only you can cherish. I realize that there is never enough time, but time is what we make of it. From what you have written Rafael made the best to what time he had and never lost hope, and with this he is at peace with God our father. In time your memories will be more endurable, but we are here anytime you need a friend. we have shared part of this battle with each other, and we are here if you need us.
I wish you peace in the memories you shared with Rafael, and peace that he is now with the Father in no pain. You are a strong person, and this to will be a time to cherish and of reflection.
Our Prayers and Best Wishes are with Rafael, You, Your Family, and Everyone.....

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I just lost my mother on July 30th to lung cancer as well as cervical cancer. She was only diagnosed in April with Cancer and was in hospice for one day before she was taken from us. She was only 67. Your husband will live in your heart forever just as my mom will. I agree that there needs to be more steps taken to fight and find a cure for Cancer. I also lost my father 5 years ago to lung cancer. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

I know how you feel!
So sorry about your husband. Mine also passed away on Mar. 25, 2010. He had done everything so I was completely at a loss. We were married 46 years & had known each other since 1st grade. I started seeing a counselor & also on meds which helps to accept this. It's so hard to see your loved one suffer and all of a sudden they're gone.
Be strong & try to remember the happy times.0 -

So sorry
I feel such pain for you. My dad diagnosed 10/09 with non small cell. I have followed your posts but have gotten caught up in my dad's treatments, tests & setbacks along the way.
I remember one of your posts, which I relayed to mom, where you weren't quite sure if you should take a leave of absence from work so that you can spend time with Rafael. My mom always is wondering this & it is a hard choice.
You both seemed so happy together although I never met you. He is not in pain or tortured anymore with the seemingly endless amount of tests & treatments & many setbacks. He is at peace and one day you will meet again, & hopefully you can tell him the news that they found a CURE. Stay strong.0
