Kevin,
I can’t say much more other than my prayers are with you and Kristin in your journey. Here’s also praying that she pulls through this one too like she has done before.

Kevin,
I am so sorry to hear that Kristen is in ICU. I was just checking to see if she had replied to my note to her under another topic. And then I thought I would check out todays’ posts and found yours. I can not stop the tears. I did not expect this news. Kristen is so personal, that you feel that she is your friend and is fighting along with all of us.
You and Kristen will be in my thoughts and prayers.Theresa

Dear Kevin,
How sad I am to hear your news. I emailed with Kristin this summer about our shared issues with drains and enjoyed getting to know her. I haven’t written her in a while but I think of her every day and always read her posts. I do so hope her condition will improve and that the ER doc is wrong. Please know I am thinking of you and Kristin and sending all my love and prayers.Betsy
Hi Rob, please feel free to e mail me or give us an update on your wife here. Who knows maybe we can be of some help. It is sure a journey none of us expected to ever take.
Kevin , i have read many postings by Kristin and even encouraged my wife to contact her since she has been battling just a little longer [ since 2005] . when reading your post my heart sunk, then reading Lainy’s posting and seeing the similarites between my wife’s and her husband ‘s condition I am dumbfounded. My prayers for you and your wife . May you both have the strength and courage to accept and carry out HIS will.
Dearest Kevin, we are so very sorry about this new turn of events. Kristin has been a real pillar of strength to us all. I look at Teddy and I think, how have I stayed sot strong and then I think, how will I really be at the end of this journey. I wouldn’t make any rash decisions at this point in time, there is time enough later. I am sure you are shell shocked at the way this all came to be. We are sending our prayers and thoughts to you both.
Oh Kevin,
I am so sorry to hear that Kristin has taken a turn for the worse. Thanks for posting and letting us all know what is going on. If you can, let her know that we are all thinking of her and sending good wishes her way. Try to stay strong and know that we are all here for you too.
Love & Hugs,
DarlaKevin, Oh my! My heart goes out to you! Is this the same Kirstin that I have been sending Tegaderm Film to? Who lives in Berea, Kentucky?
I just got an email from her on Sept. 30th, where she talked about her husband.
My heart goes out to you Kevin, and if anybody can bounce back it would be Kristin.
Even though we caregivers try to prepare ourselves for this moment, it seems that our preparations are never enough. I know that my husband Tom is facing the very same thing eventually and it breaks my heart.
During my fall housecleaning just recently, I came across a bottle of wine that we had received from our wedding day. We actually had gotten two and we drank one on our first anniversary, and I saved the other for us to drink on our 10th anniversary. When I saw that bottle of wine, I started crying because it does not look like we will make it to our 10th wedding anniversary. My first thought was “Maybe we should drink it now”, but decided that maybe, just maybe, Tom WILL be here to celebrate those 10 years. But in view of his recent CTScan with more tumors and a mass in the pelvic area, and him starting aggressive IV Chemotherapy, my head knows that he may not be here, but my heart thinks he will be here.
Please keep us posted on Kristin and if she does pass, please stay with the Cholangiocarcinoma site for your grieving process and beyond. You will be able to share your insight with other caregivers and CC patients.
Kristin is amazing and has helped me (as a caregiver) get through some very low times in my life. I will be saying additional prayers for Kristin.
Hugs and Go with God,
Margaret and Tom
