Update

not really a question, just a post for those whom care to know.  I am the husband of Libby, who has been a member of this forum in her battle with ovarian cancer.  Yesterday her struggle came to an end.  Our attempts at various forms of aggressive therapies for her recurrence could not thwart the progress of her disease.  However I and her family a comforted knowing that she is now in the care of God and has experienced His perfect healing.  I sincerely thank you for this forum as it has helped her with her fight, and especially to those who have provided the kind thoughtful messages; even simply to say "how's in going?"  If interested you can get a better understanding of the path of her fight at http://healthinfoispower.wordpress.com/about/ which is a resource that her cousin had developed as byproduct of his assisting us with our research and our plan to fight Libby's cancer.  Everyone, please take care.  Libbstrong!  (that was her little mantra modified from the little yellow bracelets that everyone wears)  If anyone desires, you are welcome to contact me, as a friend, a resource, a fellow cancer crusader, just someone out there that may understand, whatever.  sremick at yahoo *******

Another angel gets her wings...

Thank you so much for letting her go so she can guide us and whisper to us freely with our continuing fight... I will be listening for her encouragement to fight and comfort when I feel alone.  I pray you have peace as you now begin a new journey without her...

My deepest sympathy to you and your family for the loss of your wife.
I like this poem and I hope you do too.

I am standing on the seashore,
A ship sails in the morning breeze and starts for the ocean.
She is an object of beauty and I stand watching her
Till at last she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says:
She is gone.

Gone!
Gone where?

Gone from my sight that is all.

She is just as large in the masts, hull and spars, as she was when I saw her
And just as able to bear her load of living freight to its destination.
The diminished size and total loss of sight is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says,
She is gone.
There are others who are watching her coming, and other voices take up a glad shout:
Here she comes.

That is dying.
A horizon and just the limit of our sight.

Peace to you....Kim
