Sad News
I have very sad news to report. Charlie passed away Sat. night Aug. 21. He had a gi bleed; low blood pressure, electrolyte issues, low blood counts, severely dehydrated. He was admitted Thursday afternoon and was doing better; but on Sat. began having problems breathing and they had to keep pushing fluids to keep blood pressure up. Onc. had discussed this with us Thurs. afternoon and we decided to opt for DNR should that occur which happened Sat. night. We were all surprised as we thought he would probably pull out of this episode and we'd keep on fighting. I loved him so much and do not know how I'll get along without him but will find some way as that is would he would have me to do. He is going to be cremated according to his wishes and visitation is Wed. and his service on Thur. My best friend is staying with me right now from Chatt. So, you can imagine what a basketcase I am now. Just wanted to let y'all know and please keep us in your prayers as I know you will and to everyone out there "Don't ever give up!" Fight this monster with all your might and God's help! I love y'all!

I'm sorry for your loss Jan. I don't know what to say other than I am sorry. I hope you can stay strong and move forward.
I lost my mother 3 years ago to HNC, I can understand how you feel. She was only 50.
I am so sorry for your loss, and hope you can gain strength from your memories and time you had together.0 -

Jan,
This is the first post you did not sign as "Jan and Charlie". Hearing your pain, wondering how you will go on without him, it is clear what a very sad and difficult time this is. I believe there will always be "Jan and Charlie". As always on these message boards, when we rejoice, we do it together, when we go through treatment or a procedure, we are together, Jan, as you face this loss, we are together.
With deepest sympathy,

I'm so sorry for your loss. My Dad died in July . I'd like to say it gets easier but so far, it hasn't. I still come here everyday. It helps me feel connected to my Dad and like I'm still somehow part of this fight. I cheer for those who get good news and my heart breaks with and for those who don't. Praying for strength and comfort for you.
