edited March 2014 in Colorectal Cancer #1
I have been on the site since a couple of years. My husband Frank was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in Aug 2006. He has his first surgery of 9-15-06. Four years and two months to the date of his first surgery, Frank went home to be with GOD!!!! He was surrounded by his family, our two sons and myself. I was holding his hand when he passed. He fought so hard and beat his prognosis by over two years. He has 5 surgeries, 2 plus years of chemo, and did three phase one clinical trials. We were married 41 yrs 8 months and 25 days. Some of you may remember my earlier post about him. I just wanted to thank each of you...you will ever know how much your post and answers to my post meant to Frank and I. A special thanks to Clift (Buzzard) Craig (Sundance) Jennie (Idlehunter) Marygale, Hop, Cheryl, Kim, Donna and Eric. We have lost too many to this disease. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers and pray that each and every one of you reach NED soon. Thanks again for being here when I needed a rope to hold on too!

    My dear Mrs. Frank Proctor
    It's with tears in my eyes, that I write this letter of condolence to you.
    I'm so sorry for your loss, through out your time on this board, your love for your husband has shown through, some of us, could only wish for the love that you felt for your man in our own worlds.
    I know your loss is profound and deep. He fought hard, and you along side him fought hard for him as well.
    Anna, take care of yourself, I will think of you often.
    If you want to talk, we're here.

    Sincerest Condelences As Well
    Dear Anna

    I'm so sorry that Frank has passed on - I know you both did all that you could possibly do. You sure shared a lifetime together at 41+ years.

    As I sit here thinking back about the both of you, I'm reminded of a post that you sent me. You and Frank were on the way to the hospital for treatment and it was quite a long drive for you both, as I recall.

    Santa Craig had just delivered your Christmas CD and you remarked to me how the both of you were enjoying hearing it as you drove on your trips to the hospital. That always made me smile and I could picture the two of you doing just that.

    I'm certainly glad to have met you and have appreciated all of your kind support and words - it is my wish that you stay in touch with all of us and let us know how you're doing - we will all be concerned.

    I wish there was something more I could say to help - but just know that we are all thinking of you and holding you close during this most difficult transition.

    Kindest regards,
    Sundance/Craig

    So sorry for your loss but glad that you were at his side when he went home to the Lord. You were such a wonderful caregiver and know that you deserve a lot of praise for all you have been through. You, hubby and family are in my prayers as you go through this emotional time. Remember you are always a member of this family and always welcome to come back and post your thoughts.
