Linn65.. sister
Hi everyone, this is linn65 sister. I wanted to tell you that my sister linn65 passed away on September 10th. She had brain metastasis that just never could get under control. She had lesions too numerable too count diagnosed in september of last year. She had whole brain radiation and that helped her live for awhile but the truth is she was never the same.
I wanted to let you guys know about this. She and I read this forum diligently to search for a cure.
I am just now understanding the depth of the loss. I don't think I will get over her loss. She was my sister and almost like my daughter. I took care of her most of our lives. Through thick and thin we helped each other.
I was thinking last night about to be puppy dog story on this forum and realized I needed to let you guys know. I'm sorry that I have to.
In loving memory of linn65
