I have sad news to report.  Our dear friend Susan Cats Merrick known here as scatsm passed away peacefully on Tuesday with her two children and family ar her side.  I got to know Susan on this board and then we connected on Facebook.  A very gracious lady who was kind, supportive and loving.  It's so hard to explain to people how one can become so close to someone you never met.  I know you ladies understand.

    Very sad

    I'm so sorry to hear this news.  Members here are not very active, so we rarely know anymore how they are doing.  It's sad to only hear the bad news.

    Karen, thank you for sharing.  This is so sad to hear.  I hate to hear of the loss of another great lady from such a terrible disease.  I pray for a cure of all cancers.  I hope her picture I attached below posts.

    I am so sorry to hear this.  I, too, lost my sister to this awful disease.  September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.  I hope all of you will help me spread awareness.
