Just thinking about Christine today
 

I've had Christine on my mind all day today. I met Christine at the sabcs several years ago. I was immediately aware of why and how this site came to be.
She had no hesitation as she approached doctors, nurses, or survivors at the conference. She shared everything she had learned through her own experience and others' also. No one left her at the table without encouragement, more information, and an interest in our Her2 site.
I can't imagine where we might all be today had we not been brought together by Christine's determination to make this site work for us all.
Just wanted to say hello and thank you today, Christine. May God bless you beyond measure today.

I can only echo your words Mary Anne and can't imagine what I'd have done without this site or its members in the years since my own dx and thank you Christine for making this community happen for all of us. xx

So true Maryann, I also echo your words, we owe too much to Christine and Joe without whom we would not had been able to become one as we have.

Couldn't agree more! Joe and Christine have given me a gift I can never repay! They have blessed my life so much with this wonderful forum, and given me a chance to have an entire group of friends who "get" what I'm going through!

Christine,
You are in my prayers every day. But, today I'm praying not only for your health and happiness...but also in gratitude and celebration of who you are, and for the gift you and your wonderful husband have given to each of us, in this website. I pray that your love and generosity return to you a hundred-fold!

A day does not go by that I am not reminded of where I would be without this site....thanks to Christine and all of you, I remain strong and positive. Christine has created a family that we have all become a part of!

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

Thank you to Christine and Joe. When I came to this site, I was so scared. I had only heard/read very negative things about HER2 positive breast cancer. My family was quite literally asking me about my funeral plans weeks after my diagnosis. Without everyone here and all the information and support available, I would have been completely lost. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Anyone know how Christine is doing?

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

So many beautiful people have graced my life and left footprints in my heart because of this site since I came here shell shocked almost a decade ago. Lyn and Lolly - Mary and Joe and so many other angels. Love and blessings Christine xox

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

Perhaps, this would be a good day to take a few minutes at noon and say a little prayer for Christine and all our other heroes here on the Her2 site. Love to all, ma

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

Great idea!
Count me in!
In fact...I think I'm going to start a habit of saying a little prayer for all of us around noon EVERY day!

Feel free to join in, my friends!
Love to all!

Christine started something amazing- I just hope that some how we can all leave such an inspirational mark behind when it is our time. I am so very thankful for all the support and venting that I can do here- you are the only women who "get" me.

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

I will be forever grateful to Christine, Joe, and everyone else on this board. Christine, you're a blessing and an inspiration.

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

Me too...I need to chime in too. I am a 7 year survivor who joined 6 years ago. I still stop back to check on my friends. You are all important to me. If it wasn't for Christine and Joe this friendship wouldn't be part of my life.

I, too, am grateful. I've learned much and garnered much strength, many days, because of this site.

Thank you seems inadequate, but a heartfelt thankful is all I can offer. Prayers for you Christine.........

Peace,

Mary Jo

Re: Just thinking about Christine today
 

It's been 4 1/2 years since I became 'active' on this Board. Because of multiple illnesses/procedures, I have also joined several other online support groups.

This is the only one that really feels like a 'family'...

Thanks, 'Christine and family'.
