It's Been A While, My Mom Passed Away 4/3/11

Hi all,

I found this board in late 2009. My 55-year-old mom had just been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. Stage 4A. After many surgeries and stents she got to enjoy summer of 2010. She amazed all of her doctors by doing so well. However, the tides turned in December.

On April 3, 2011, just two days after telling us she was done fighting (she couldn't breathe and needed to be on high-flow oxygen) she passed away with her husband, three children, parents and brother/sister-in-law present.

My mom was amazing and she fought the good fight.

I wish you all the best in your EC journey.

I may check in from time to time. I know how hard this can be when someone is first diagnosed. I found a lot of comfort here even if I didn't post often.

Take care,
Amy

I am sorry
I am so sorry for your loss of your mom. My husband lost his fight in February. This is one hell of a tough disease and the ones that make it are really blessed.

Please take care and know we care and we understand


Love

Barb
