I wanted to share with you that my husband quietly passed away Friday night. I have not posted regularly for a long time, but this Board has been my comfort and strength for many years and I feel like I am letting a good friend know that I have lost my best friend. Our past 5 years has been John's cancer journey and now I don’t know what I will do without him. Every time I turn around to talk with him I am taken by surprise that he is not there. John was diagnosed 5 years ago as stage IV. He fought a courageous battle and never gave up hope, but his liver could not go on anymore. He is already desperately missed by his family and friends. Thank you for letting me share my sad news with you. And know that I will always continue to keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless…. |

He fought long and hard, he was as lucky to have you beside him as you were to have him.
I think he will always be with you in spirit.

Thank You!
Thank you Mary Kay for sharing the news of John's passing. I am truly sorry for your loss. Any death from within this community always hits me hard. We've become so close, and we share a common life threatening condition. John's passing strikes particularly close to home for me as we were diagnosed Stage 4 around the same time.
Wishing you every blessing as you remember and celebrate his life in the time ahead.
Peace and blessings... Rob; in Van

Sad!
Along with the NEDS that I'm so happy for, there are also lives still out there being taken away by this dreadful disease, I am so sorry to hear about your hubby, he fought one hell of a fight like we all are, and know he is now an angel in God's arms, and with you in your heart, mind and soul.
Hugsss!
