Hello Everyone:

It is with great sadness that I am writing to let you all know that Nadine last her battle with cancer on July 31st, 2015.  This is her sister Annette.  She left me a letter and her user name and password so that I could let you all know what happened with her.  Nadine did get to attend her grandbabies dance recital the first of June and she did get to go to the beach even though she was not probably able to do so.  Nevertheless she worsening while there and ended up in the hospital upon her return.  After a 5 day stay she returned home where her condition progressively worsened over the next month.  She only got completely bed ridden the last two weeks and she was alert and aware of her surrounding all the way up until the last two days.  What a warrior she was.  Keep fighting ladies and win this battle.  I miss her so very much.  Thanks to you all who chatted with her and discussed this horrible disease and treatments.  She spoke of conversations with you all what a comfort you were to her chatting with others who were experiencing the same.  Gol bless you all.

 

Regards,

 

Annette Wood
