My friend has passed

One month before I was diagnosed with Stage 2a BC, a friend an co-worker was diagnosed with stage 3 stomach cancer. He was diagnosed a year ago this month. We tried to support each other since I was just one month behind him in treatment. The last time I saw him was in September when he had a "my chemo is finished" party. Last I heard (about a month ago) he was weak but cancer free. About a week ago he found out the cancer was back and had spread, pretty much everywhere. They thought he had a couple of months left. Just got an email that he passed last night. I did not know that his cancer was back, he was trying to keep it quiet. Just finished talking to his best friend, we were both sobbing. He has a wife and 3 year old daughter. Please send positive caring thoughts to them. THanks, Jennifer

    I think the death of a friend is that much more difficult to bear when it comes so fast and unexpected.

    Know that we're all here for you. And, when you can, please let us know your friend's first name, so we can include him in our prayers.
