Sad news about Lisa (CLISA)

I sent this to Joe in July but I think it was lost during that period our site had problems.

I received this e-mail form her husband John. You have seen her posts under CLISA. She was so young and full of life. It's so sad and heart breaking:

"I am not sure if you know or not but Lisa passed away on July 6th. She was at home and comfortable. No pain. Her family and close friends were by her side. I am thankful that she met you and took your advice on seeing Dr. Klimo. We had 6 more months together and Lisa was able to do some traveling that she wanted to do. I am sure that she has told you all about these ventures. The most recent was a week before she died, she went to Kelowna with her girlfriends. She had a blast. I love her lots and I am sure glad that I met you at the chemo sessions. Take care and keep in touch. I will check in on this message board from time to time. Most of all… Thank you…."

I am so sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. I remember her postings well and she is a loss to us here. Each loss to our site is another reason to keep fighting and informing each other of any and all knowledge we might have of this awful, pitiless disease. God bless to you and Lisa's family.

Lisa's family and close friends are heading to Hawaii on the 16th (September) to put Lisa's remains to rest (her request). She loved Hawaii and she wanted to be there forever. I'm sure she is there waiting for them.
Yes we need to fight and find a cure for all the Lisas in the world.

Love and hugs,
