    I am glad your mom is comfortable. It is so nice that you are able to have her at home. Like Lainy said keep making those memories and cherish each moment. Thinking of you through this difficult time and sending hugs to you and your mom. Nancy

    So sorry to read of your mom’s passing. Your emotions are understood! There will come a time when the pain is not as great but it is a process that takes you up and down like a rollercoaster.
    Your mom is with you forever. I lost my dad at 18 and somehow he is with me everyday of my life. I lost my husband to cc nearly 1 year ago (he was 60) and somehow he is helping me through this trying time. Hugs to you. Nancy

    Now this is what I have been waiting to hear! So happy, thrilled, and excited for you! Like I said on Facebook I never thought I would say I was excited over a liver transplant, but I am! This gives you an excellent chance for a recovery and a long life with those beautiful children and husband. I’ll pray the wait is not too long! I can only imagine your anxiety! Do you do yoga or meditate? Great for the nerves. Sending hugs to you and all your family.

    Hi Lynn, Just wanted to welcome you as well. I hope you have found some success with the nausea. Ginger is good for nausea. Sending good wishes that George is able to get the whipple surgery. Hugs. Nancy

    Lisa Ann, Thinking of you as you spend the last hours with your dad. My husband, too, did not seem to experience pain at the end. What a blessing. He will be at peace soon and I hope you find some peace in this sad time as well. Hugs. Nancy

    Hi Mona, I have never heard of it. Were they treated your mom for cholangiocarcinoma? In which way did they not detect cancer? In my husbands final months with cc we were told he had cirrhosis of the liver. Which came first the cirrhosis or the cc I don’t know. He was not a heavy drinker. Hope you find some answers. Nancy

    Hi Marion and Lainy, I looked for brochures on the site but could not find them. How do I contact Stacie? I don’t know much about blogging. Tamia (my daughter) put it as an event on facebook and we have been inviting through that. We are also asking those that can not participate to send a donation in. Do you have facebook? I could send you the page. Hugs. Nancy

    Dearest Jillian, I lost my husband 11 months ago today at 54 and feel like a young widow, too. I am the first of my friends and family to be widowed. We were already empty nesters. It is tough! My kids and family keep me busy, sometimes too busy that I get exhausted. The hardest for me is going to bed and waking up alone, and then there’s seeing everyone else with their partners. My mom was widowed at 47 when I (the baby of the family) had just graduated from high school. Now I have seen and felt it at both ends (daughter, wife).
    I haven’t been much help to you so far! Are you working? I work at the Secondary School here. It is actually a life saver for me. I have been off for the summer so am actually finding it harder, though am enjoying the weather and am not looking forward to winter.
    I to think, am I going to spend the next possibly 30 or more years alone? Don’t like to think about it. Sometimes I think I would sometime want to meet someone but most of the time I can’t imagine it. Guess we will find what life brings us. It is still so new for both of us. Wish we lived closer so we could meet! Where do you live anyhow? I am in a small town in the mountains of British Columbia. Hugs to you. Nancy

    Dear Michelle, I feel your pain. I lost my dad at 18 and now my children lost their dad while in their 20’s. I just past the 37th anniversary this month of my father’s death and coming up to 11 months since my husband’s passing. I will have to say that there is not a day that goes by that I don’t feel their presence. Saw this Pooh quote today that I loved – “If there ever comes a day that we can’t be together…..Keep me in your heart, I’ll stay there forever.” Hugs. Nancy

    Hi Shar, I understand when you wonder why. It just doesn’t make sense sometimes. My husband was 59 at diagnosis and 60 when passed. He was the healthiest guy I knew, always active. Some people who are incredibly unhealthy live years. Cancer shows no boundaries, attacks the healthy and the weak. We must continue the fight until it takes no more victims!
    Saw a Pooh quote today “If there ever comes a day that we can’t be together…..keep me in your heart, I’ll stay there forever.”
    Hugs to you. Nancy
