Good morning everyone.
Just under three years ago I was on the board telling you all that my
mom had been diagnosed with colon cancer. Unfortunately, when they
found it, it was already stage IV, with metastases to the lives and
lymph nodes. I am sad to have to say that my dear mother passed away
last week at the age of 68. Much too young. And since then, everytime
I pick up a needle my eyes fill up and I can't see through the tears.
Like with other cancer screening tests, do get your check ups, all of
them, regularly. I know, the screening tests are not pleasant, but
they can save a lot of grief for all involved, and they only take a
moment. I believe that mom could have beat this if only she would have
gone in for screening.
For now, I have to putt strength by believing that she is now at peace
and can finally rest after fighting a long and very very hard battle.
Getting through my 45th birthday this Sunday without her, will be so
so hard.
GET YOUR SCREENING TESTS DONE

Claudia, please accept my condolences on the loss of your dear mother. And
may you have a happy birthday even under these sad circumstances. Perhaps
memories of birthdays that you celebrated and shared with your mother will
help you to get through this....
Hugs,
Leslie- screened just this past Monday- thanks for reminding everybody

Sincere condolences, Claudia, that is so sad.
I suggest you postpone your birthday, and have a small celebration, when
you feel you can.

Please accept my condolences. Losing a loved parent is hard at any age.
And yes, I will go for my screening tests.
First anythings are hard after such a loss. A birthday so soon is going
to be difficult, but I wish you a day of peace.
