It is done

Yesterday my brother-in-law passed away, quietly and peacefully, on his own terms. He was holding his daughter's hand and just eased into another dimension.

This is so sad. We need to find a cure for this desease. It takes so many!

And it is so deadly and so stealthy. He had no symptoms until it was beyond any treatment. The only blessing was that the whole thing took only six weeks.

I told my sister about widow.net, and she is thinking about starting school in the fall, as youngest is going off to college. I am so proud of her.

You've been a great support to your sister and I know how important this is to her. My sisters saved my life when he was dying.

You're right, pancreatic cancer is deadly and stealthy...I lost a good friend to that disease a few years ago.

Tell her that the link is www.widownet.org. They helped to save my life as well.
