Thank you Steph for letting us know our Chrisy has no more worries. I selfishly wish she could have stayed with us to dispense her wry humor and extensive knowledge on this disease. Chrisy has helped innumerable people with her knowledge, insignt and trailblazing ways in the BC world.

We will miss her sorely--but I'm sure she is with Sheila and Brenda and all our other sisters enjoying some Mole' sauce, shouting Crap on a Crapstick, discussing things like Whack-a-Mole, and being our guardian angels.
