My Thomas is gone

Yesterday my Thomas started his new journey.  He's  now free of all the chemo and radiation and their horrible side effects.  He's  free of the hundreds of tests and infusions and lab works.  He's free of the difficulty eating and breathing.  Hes finally free.  He fought one hell of a battle against the odds with dignity and respect and humor.  May your spirit fill the world with beauty. Not all stories are Kumbaya.   Love you forever and always.

    So sorry

    Always sad to hear of one of us dying, of course. From your profile page, looks like it was first caught late, Thomas went to top-notch C Centers, and still lost the battle. RIP, Thomas.

    Pclark My Sincerest

    Condolences in your time of loss. I am so sorry to hear this news. At these times it is always hard to find the right words and words can not fully express your loss. It is not easy to part with the one we love but as you say in your posting he is now free from all the tests and pain and suffering. But in your lives together and even in the midst of treatments and troubles, I am sure you have gleaned some happy memories. May they give you comfort in the coming days and please know that we here at CSN mourn the loss of one of our members, one of our own. I will continue to keep you in prayer, and may you find comfort in the days ahead-Take care-God Bless-Russ

    I am so very sorry for your lose.  But remember free of pain, treatment, side effects that can go on & on for years but now free to be at peace.  But know not easy on you.  Never easy on those left behind.  But keep the memories close to your heart and always remember Thomas healthy & happy.  Big hugs, Lisa

    So sorry

    I am so sorry for your loss.  You were a loving and dedicated caregiver for Thomas for a long time, and he had a lot of other support in his battle with cancer. You couldn't prevent his passing, but you made his last few months the best they could be.

    My sincere condolences

    So sorry to hear about your loss. I know you were a wonderful caregiver for Thomas. It is always sad to hear about one of our cancer warriors losing their battle with this terrible disease. I remmber when I started my treatment in August, 2018 you were the one that suggested to me to use a mixture of products to prevent radiation burns and they worked perfectly. You were not only a wonderful caregiver to Thomas but also helped others. May Thomas rest in peace and God Bless both of you. Take care. Rick
