    Erin, I responded to this on facebook , but I wanted to post here too. I just want to say how very sorry I am for your loss. Dawn will be missed. She was such a fighter and always tried to remain upbeat and cheerful. She was a real inspiration to many as she showed so much courage throughout her battle. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
  2. Hi Ronnie, Good to see you and glad to know that you are doing ok. Ronnie, it seems no matter how many years go by we still miss those that owned a part of our hearts. Anniversary dates just seem to bring the sad memory of the day we lost them back to life again. They can never be replaced, but we can move on to make new memories. Take care. Hugs, Sue
  3. (((Denise))), I posted to you on facebook a few times , but I wanted to post here too. I'm just so sorry for your loss. Those of us who followed Tom's journey know he was a courageous fighter . I just want you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs, Sue
  4. Denise, My heart hurts for you and your family. Many of us here at lcsc have been with you through Thomas's journey and it's so hard to believe that he is gone. He was certainly a fighter and amazed me over and over again the way he would bounce back from obstacles along the way. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with your family during these very difficult days. Love, Sue
  5. Carol, I'm so happy to read your latest results. I can't even imagine how hard that 6 months must have been for you , but so happy that it had a good ending. Hugs, Sue
  6. This is such fantastic news! I'm very happy for you Diane! I didn't know you had the scare, but so glad I stopped in to see the great results of the latest scan. Hugs, Sue
  7. Don, I can't begin to tell you how inspiring you are. I will be praying that you will continue to do what brings you joy for a long long time to come. Hugs, Sue
  8. (((Ginny))), I had not been here long before Earl passed away, but I remember your posts in those final days and I can still remember being able to feel the love. These days are so hard. Sorry, I'm a day late seeing this . Yesterday, Aug. 18th marked 11 months since my mom passed away and it was a hard day for Bonnie and I too. They all live in our hearts forever. Hugs, Sue
  9. Don, I haven't been to the board for a while and I just read about your new cancer. I'm so sorry you have to go through this, but I must say your positive attitude will help you and inspire others. Sounds like you have a lot to enjoy there on the ranch and I hope you can and will enjoyo it for a long time to come. Know that you will be in my prayers. Will be looking in here in September to see what treatment plan the doctor has planned for you. In the meantime , take care and God bless you. Hugs, Sue
  10. (((Donna))), There just aren't words to tell you how I feel. Just know that you, your hubby and your family will be in my prayers. Wish I could make this not so. Hugs, Sue
  11. (((Nick))), I understand all to well what you are talking about. For me, it's usually at bedtime that I start reliving those horrible last days and hours I spent with my husband and my mom. As I remember , the pain is so intense and tears start pouring. I'm no closer to processing it all now than I was then. It is such a traumatic event to helplessly watch someone you love suffer and then die. I do my best to remember the good times, but I don't think I will ever be able to erase those horrible days, hours and moments from my memory and my heart. Thank you for bringing this up , Nick. I think it helps us heal by sharing our experiences and our grief with others. Hugs, Sue
  12. Wonderful news! I will keep you in my prayers and yes, I pray for a cure every day. Hugs, Sue
  13. Don, thanks for sharing this wonderful update with us. You are such an inspiration and a man with a BIG heart. Thank you for all you have given to others. The world could sure use a lot more folks with your spirit and your kindness. Wishing you the best . Hugs, Sue

  19. Merry Christmas, Randy and everyone! Your post is beautiful, Randy and yes many of us are having a hard time this season and my sister and I are among those. Just a little over three months ago we lost mom and she was THE Christmas person in the family. She put so much love an magic in many many Christmas's for us all . My sons and I will be together with my Daddy and my sister part of today and we will be missing mom , but we will try to make the best of it. Aside from mom, we've all lost many lcsc members and relatives this year and years past..holidays can be very hard.

    Celebrating!

    15 years, WOO HOO!!! That is really something to celebrate and what an inspiration you are to others. Glad to hear that your hubby's scan results show improvement and hope they can get his blood work straight. May you, hubby and your families enjoy this holiday season as you celebrate all that is good. Hugs, Sue
  22. (((Eric))), my heart hurts for you and your family. I never can find the words to express what I feel when the news is so sad beyond words... there are no words that can really comfort you at this time. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you , your family and all who loved Linda. Love, Sue
  23. Eric, I am at a loss for words. My heart goes out to you and your family. My prayers are with your sister and your family. Just thinking of what you are all going through just breaks my heart. I'm just so sorry. Love, Sue

    Scan results

    Wonderful news, Diane!!! I love finding posts in this forum. I'm so very happy for you. Hugs, Sue
  25. (((Susan))), Wish I had some advice, but I don't . I just want to say that I think it's good to vent and I love the way your share your life, the good and the bad of it because I'm sure it helps others . I just wish more people would come forward and share with you, so that you know you are not alone. From where I sit, you are amazing and such an inspiration. You are dealing with a big , bad, scary illness and trying to make the best of everything. I find that many men just don't know how talk things out or express their feelings. Many times, I've read stories, such as what you have written, and it seems that some men come across as resentful or angry as caregivers and although their feelings should be verbalized as anger toward the illness itself, their frustrations seem to come out as misplaced anger. I am not expressing myself well, but my guess is that your husband does not resent you or the fact that you are home, he is just angry ( like you are) that your life has been altered and in some ways it probably seems surreal. He probably hasn't let himself think things out in a rational way. He is probably in his comfort zone and just not dealing with it and not really thinking things through. I just hate to see you take his actions or words to heart when he is most likely just frustrated and doesn't want to deal with reality. Please don't feel guilty because you have nothing to feel guilty about. Wishing you the best in finding a solution to all your financial decisions and I hope you can find funding for your medication. HUGE HUGS, Sue
