To Al and your family
 

Dear Al,
I also want to extend my deepest sympathies to you and your family. The two of you have been continuously in my thoughts these past few days, and I share the sentiment of others on this forum. We care and feel so close to you, although we have never formally met. You willingness to continue to be part of our support group brought tears to my eyes. I hope the next few days, weeks, months, years, will be good to you, and that you will find support with your wonderful extended family.
Barbara H.

My sympathy to you and your wonderful family. I feel that I have come to know you both through my time here on this board. Linda was lucky to have such a loving supportive husband and you are lucky to have had such a incredible wife and friend.

Dear Al,

There are not words to express my sorrow for your loss. I know how dearly you loved Linda through your posts. Linda was very lucky to have someone so smart, so supportive and so dedicated by her side. May God help you to hold onto the promise that you will meet again.....in another time, in better tomorrow, free of all sickness. I pray angels of love are surrounding and supporting you and your family.

With deepest sympathy,
RobinP

Dear Al and family,

Al, I'm very sorry for your loss. Sitting here thinking daily about a recurrence is hard. After reading how peaceful Linda's death was truly makes it easier for us survivors. The thing i'm mostly afraid of is a painful death. Knowing that it can be peaceful is comforting to me and i'm sure alot of other women. Linda was truly an inspiration to us all. You both fought so hard for time. But we are not in control of our time here on earth. Know that you did all you could....

Al,
I send my deepest sympathy to you and your family. I am so sad to hear the news of Linda's passing. I know she walks with our Lord.

Sincerely,
Jean

Dear Al,

Thank you for sharing Linda's final moment. I like to say the translation of my favorite poeme for you "Remember the flight, the bird is mortal".

I always read your post and always found them interesting and full of information. I feel like you and Linda are someone I know and have lost. It is hard to explain to other people as I mourn your lost, that it is someone I never met but still I felt as I had. My aches for your lost. Patty H

oh, Al...
 

Dear Al,

I've just come up on your tragic news and want to say only that my heart breaks for you and your family. You've been such a mainstay for so many of us who visit this board and find community here...

There's a word in Yiddish, "mensch" that literally just means "man," but really means a person who always finds a way to do the right, loving, honorable, and selfless thing, no matter what. It means you.

Thanks for being a guide and an inspiration. And know that many of us, all around the world, are grieving with you.

Warmly,
Jeff

Linda will be greatly missed
 

Dear Al,

We have been so blessed in knowing both you and Linda through your posts. You have been such a wonderful advocate and so inspirational to us all. We can't thank you enough for all that you have brought to this group and I am so glad that you will continue to be a part of this community. Our lives have truly been enriched in knowing Linda's story and she will be forever loved and missed by us all.

I wish I could give you and yours a great big hug. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May you find peace and joy in the memories and comfort and healing in time.

Love & Hugs,
Nicola

Will try this again as I posted this morning but may have hit the wrong button. My heart goes out to you. As Steph posted earlier I thank Joe and Christine for having known you in San Antonio. I am over whelmed over all that has transpired since that time. It has been a whirl wind for you Al. I am happy to hear you say you will continue to stay with us. I think some feel once their loved one is gone they no longer belong on this board and that is not true. You were so sweet to send us a post so soon with all that you are going through. Please keep us updated on how you are doing. I will continue to pray for you and your family as you start your new journey. Sending you a big hug, Sandy

Al,

My deepest symapthy goes our to you and your children at the loss of this dear loved one. Thank you for sharing with us. You are in my prayers.

God Bless,
Jackie

Al,

Words can not express the sorrow that both Christine and I feel for your loss.
It seems like just yesterday that we all were in San Antonio together.

Deepest Sympathy
Christine and Joe

Keeping you in prayer...
 

Al,


Thank you for sharing Linda's and your life with us. May the love and support of all whose lives you have touched comfort you as you continue your journey.

Dear Al,
I am so saddened to hear of your loss. Words totally fail me. Like all of us, I had so hoped for a miracle. You and Linda have been so inspiring in your courage, kindness and knowledge. Your love for one another and concern for everyone radiated through your posts and warmed us. Even though we have never met, I cry with you and feel I have lost an exceptional friend. I hug you and all of your family. Thank you for letting us know and I am relieved to read that she didn't suffer. You and Linda are greatly loved by all of us.

To Al and family,

My deepest symphathies upon your loss.
I have been a lurker here for over a year now and only registered today. I am angry! We must stop this damned disease in its tracks.
I will be sending Christine and Joe a donation in memory of Linda today to be used as they seem fit.

AnnW

Please accept my deepest sympathy to you and your family at this time.

Linda could not have had anyone better by her side. I applaude you for your strength, compassion, spirit and love for your wife.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that you and your family will be in my prayers.

I am relatively new to this board but I know from all of your posts that you were so deeply involved with Linda's care. What a blessing that you had one another through all of this.

Linda sounds like wonderful person and the world is a lesser place without her.

May God bless you during this difficult time -

jane

I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers.

Dear Al,

So sorry to hear of your loss
 

Dear Al,

I am sorry to hear of Linda's death. I guess alot of people have pointed this out, but you were a model carer and Linda was lucky to have you. I am glad that you will be coming back to the board eventually since you have helped so many people with your knowledge.

Best wishes,
Christine MH

Dear Al and family,
My thanks goes out to God for having given Linda to you and you to us. You are such an inspiration to us all. I pray your days ahead will be filled with the peace of knowing you did all you could and that Linda fought the good fight.

Dear Al,
I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for sharing with us your journey with Linda and with this disease. I'm typing through my tears with condolences for you and your family. This website has provided a great way to feel connected. You have been so generous in sharing your experiences, knowlege and your deep love and care for your wife. You have touched us all and benefitted us tremendously.
Thanks for sharing that a smile appeared right after her last breath. I have this deep belief that at the time of death, there is a great joy and bliss and we return to a tranquil resting place. Thanks for sharing such a touching moment.
Many blessings,
Margaret

Al: I'm so sorry . My prayers are with you and your family. BERTA

Dear Al,

So sorry to read your post today. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. It is a blessing that she was able to go peacefully at home in her own bed with you at her side. I had lost my first husband at the age of 27 of cancer and I had always wished that I could have brought him home in his final days. I don't feel there is much warmth in a hospital setting, no matter how much they try.

My prayers are with you and know that Linda will continue to be with you and watching you from above.

Sue

Dear Al & family,

I send my deepest sympathy to you and your family. As others have stated, you will have the peace of knowing that you did all you could and then some. That will help bring you comfort in the days ahead. May God be with you and yours.

Sincerely,

Liz J.

Dear Al and family, I am so sorry about the loss of your beloved Linda. You are all in my thougts and prayers. God Bless. Patti

I thought of you all week as I dug in my garden. I hoped so much that Linda would pull through. Al, you are such a guardian, and I hope you know you did everthing you could.

I am so happy to hear that you will still be with us.

Diane

Dear Al,

Please accept my deepest symmpathy.
