My husband, age 53, passed away on June 24 from Adenocarcinoma of the gastricintestional system. He was diagnosed on Feb 14 and only lasted 4 mos. He lost 75 lbs in that 4 months and only weighed 95 lbs at his death. This is a terrible time for any of us who lose loved ones to this terrible disease. My prayers are with all of you caring for your loved ones. |

My father also died of adenocarcinoma only 7 weeks after diagnosis. He also lost alot of weight, he was down to approx 85 lbs. I was glad he didn't linger and suffer long term. Please read in gallery "May I GO Now". It really made me feel better. Sorry for last entry -- oops.
