Our friend and fellow warrior, Marty White, has passed away. Many of you are "newbies" and didn't know Marty, but a few of you might remember her.

She was diagnosed in Nov of 2008 - stage IIIc.

Marty stopped posting on the board around the time that her doctors gave her "a year or less" to live. I kept in touch with her via email after that, but all my messages went unanswered after the first part of this year, so I knew she wasn't in a good place. Still, it was a shock.

    Thanks for letting us know, Carlene
    I knew as soon as I saw her name come up as a posting that we probably had lost her. It is a shock, isn't it, even when we don't hear directly from one of our survivors for quite awhile, you just kind of hope they're off having healtier than expected lives. She will be missed.

    Thank you
    I remember Marty well. 'Can still see her smiling profile pic.
    She and I were diagnosed the same time with the same stage.
    I am starting to have major complications and 'am afraid this last chemo may be my last hope.
    Marty was always so upbeat and kind to all.... May she be in peace. Ginny
