It has been about a year in the passing of our friends

Thank you for reminding us, Jojo. Hard to believe its been a year. RIP, Djinnie and Nanosecond...

I'm always surprised at how fast the time goes by. Jeeze.

very close to Paula. We were so optimistic and emotionally supportive of each other. We've developed friendships here that seem unlikely. Yet our reliance upon each other for support is so special. Almost in a musical chairs sort of way. Or like the "hot potato". We really do, do this together. And I thank you all with everything that I've got. I don't say "FLY" for nuttin. I wish people would share more than be so ego-centric in so many discussions. I think that I can predict with pretty good certainty who will reach 100 posts over time versus those who don't return the favors. I guess we all cope differently.

I'm slowly getting around to reading the older posts (I pretty much am "read up" on the ones that load on one page for this part of the forum). It's a good way to learn of others' journeys, plus get to "meet" folks I wouldn't otherwise. 

I'm sure appreciating the special people who hang out on the forum now.  Definitely, you are all a good group, and I am indebted to you all for your support of me and of others.  I'm convinced that we humans are hard-wired to think caring thoughts and do caring deeds, even if the news as it's flung at us would seem to indicate otherwise.

Djinnie was so special to me. I can't believe it's been a year. I miss her sense of humor, compassion, and everything that made her Djinnie. Nano I didn't know as well since DJ and I used to message a lot and got to know each other online. But he was so full of knowledge which he was willing to share right down to the very end.

I see that my post never made it yesterday; thank you, Jojo, for bringing DJ and and Nano up. Two very special people; it will be 2 years since we lost our Ron.

TW passed shortly after I came here but his posts were amazing to read; so much to learn from him.

on our end, I am beyond grateful that my husband reached his 3D anniversary (7/2/2013) and has been living with this horrific disease as a chronic one without all of the side effects.

Prayers, fingers crossed, good karma & vibes being sent your way in hopes that the cyberknife treatment did the job and you can resume the celebration of life.  Looking forward to your news in September.

Dijinie was one of the first ones who greeted me, gave me hope, and helped me to smile and seize the moment. Nano was the one who helped me see this as a fact not as a reason of misery. He kept telling me this is no longer the death sentence anymore. I miss them both and remember them as two wonderful supportive positive members
