Margaret, how very sweet of you, it seems we have been together for years! I will never forget my first loss on here, JeffG! He really helped me through Teddys first years. I feel the same way about you and Tom and it has nothing to do with the fact we are all cheeseheads. Say, how about those Packers? Tell Tom that Teddy was watching with Vince Lombardy and drinking a new beer called, “heavenly beer”. I am really doing ok with my ‘new normal’. My friends include me all the time, I have my daughter out here, Teddy’s 2 daughters and a son call me weekly and his sister calls me every day. Saturday night I went to a singles party out here and lets just say I prefer to remain single. Nothing changes not even the lines given out, it’s just that the lines are coming from men all over 75!!!!!!!!!! Hope Tom is doing well. Did he get his wheels yet?
Randi:
I’m sorry for your loss of your friend and mentor. Somehow no matter who it is that passes from CC it affects all of us on this forum in one way or another. I have been brought to tears many times when reading of someone passing on. Not because I know the person but because it strikes very close to home. I did get rather close to one person on this board and we were emailing, etc and I sent her some Tegaderm films so she could bandage her leaking external drain tube and those tegaderm allowed her to travel to Wisconsin to visit her grandmother before passing. Then there was of course Teddy’s passing on that also brought me to tears. Teddy and Tommy were like CC buddies in the way their CC came on, etc. and over the short time that I ‘Knew’ Teddy it was really Lainy that my tears were for, because I knew how much she was going to miss her soulmate.Just remember that you are not alone, you have a whole family (web type family) here and remember that we are all here for you for moral support if nothing else.
Saddness, grief, tears, anger, rage, peace are all normal feeling when we lose someone who has touched our lives.
Go with God and KEEP KICKIN’ THAT cancer.
HUGS,
MargaretDear Randi,
I am so very sorry indeed to hear of the passing of your dear friend Linda. I know that you will never forget her and she will be missed by so many people. Thinking of you and Linda’s family right now.

Dearest Randi, I am so very sorry to hear about Linda. She was also lucky to have made friends with you! When someone you love becomes a Memory, the Memory becomes a treasure.
Randi….I am so sad along with you. May Linda rest in peace. She will never be forgotten.
All my love,
MarionI am so sad and sorry to have to say that my friend Linda died. She was diagnosed in 8/2009 and went thru a whipple, chemo and radiation.
She was a great person who reached out to others even in times when she was going through tough times herself. She helped me through my entire course of chemo by email, instant message, and facebook posts. Even though I never met her in person, we became close because of what we had both gone through. I will never forget her. She was a frequent poster to this site and that is how i connected with her. She fought until the end and she will be missed by many.
Rest in peace Linda.
Hello to Linda and I am sending only gpood thoughts and Prayers to her. With you for a friend, Randi. she can’t loose! Hugs to you both.
Hello all,
This site has meant a lot to me over the past almost two years. Thru this site I’ve connected with many wonderful people who I have corresponded with throughout my odyssey with this disease. All have their own stories of hope and healing, pain and disappointment.
The first person I talked to was my friend Linda who helped me thru chemo. She was at the end of her chemo and i was in the middle. We compared notes and she was always there to tell me it would get better.
Right now Linda is going thru a very tough time. I only hope I can be as much of a support to her as she has always been to me. I am praying and sending good thoughts her way and I would love it if you would do the same for her. I know she reads this site when she is able and I want her to know how much positive energy is coming her way and how we are all pulling for her.
Much love Linda, I hope you read this and all of the great comments I know that will come from our CC family of supporters on this site.
Hang in there Linda…much love
