To all the friends on this network, my husband Mike just lost his battle with colon cancer,on Aug 11th at 43yrs old,he wasn't ready and did not want to leave me and our 4 small kids,how hard is that to live with??? We need you survivors to keep up the great words of encouragement and faith....to you I thank for all those scared lonely nights I sat up just searching for a miracle,( ours didn't come, but I pray for all of you who are also searching, that you find yours.....)that your kind words of love and support helped me get back up in the morning to start the fight again...although it was best for him to go to be at peace, I wish him still here sick, so I could take care of him and my kids could still touch and feel him and know that their daddy was just in the other room...this disease is ripping families apart all over the world, when is enough, enough??
Thank you again, God bless you all and may you fight this #$@*$#%@ monster.......

    Dear Beci,

    I am so sorry about your husband, Mike. I am sorry your children have lost their father. My heart goes out to you all very much.

    I am glad that this board could be of service when you needed it most. We do need it, don't we? .....the sense of community and not feeling alone in this...what can start out as a nightmare or end as one.

    My prayers are with you all today.

    peace, emily

    Oh Beci" I responded to your email and was in tears to read your post- you are so very brave to type those sad sad words of Mike being gone...can you take a deep breath and know how many hearts are praying for you to have strength for your children and for you to find a sense of peace in all of this...

    "and he will lift you up on angels wings
    and bear you on the breath of dawn
    make you shine like the sun
    and hold you in the palm of His hand"
    Take care Beci

    Dear Beci. We are both very saddenned to hear that the love of your life has been taken from you. Always be mindfull Beci that the day will come when you will once again be with Mike. Until that time when we all must leave this earth, savour the love of life, your family, friends, and most of all, your children.....and the memories of Mike.
