She passed away 4 days ago. Doctor diagnosed her with cancer about 2 months ago and the cancer was spreading all over her body.. Doctor said her life maybe only 3 months left. It is not 3 months yet but she left already..
We all, her friend were so sad to see her struggling in a batlle with cancer, she was so skinny and doctor have to inject morphine 2 times a day to reduce her pain..
Her family was ready to let her go instead of watching her in pain. She never give up. She said no matter how short her life is, she will fight for it because it is worth it..
I learn a lot from her during my visit to hospital. She is one of a kind.. and I promise her that I will enjoy my life and will remember all things she taught me.
Her husband is very sad for his loving wife. They just had an adorable 6 months old baby.
Life is hard.. and Cancer is really a silent killer..
I do hope that somebody out there will find the cure pretty soon. I had 2 friends passed away because of cancer.
Still today I feel hollow in my heart whenever I think of her.. Think of her battle, think of her life, think of her pain, think of her baby and think of how we have to be prepared when something happened that will destroy our happy life.....

I have a friend who was just diagnosed about a month ago. She has been given 2months to a year. She was engaged when diagnosed and called off the wedding. Her fiance convinced her to go thru with it. They were married today. It was a tearjerker to be sure. 2 years ago, I lost a close friend to cancer. You are right...it is a silent killer. I, too, have learned an appreciation for life thru these friends.

I am so sorry to hear about your friend dyeing of cancer. My heart goes out to you and her family. May you all keep the peice of mind in remembering what a good friend,wife,and mother she was. I know it's hard to lose a loved one. I lost my mom when I was 14. I try to remember all the good things about her and the times we spent together. Know that your friend is w/ you always in your hearts.

Sorry to hear about that. Hope you are getting better. Things change all the time around us. That's life. I have a older brother who suffered from uremia. To save him his mother got one of her kidneys transplanted to her son. I can't imagine what situation he is in now if he didn't get that important transplantation operation. He maybe....too. So I just want you to know that unfortunate things happen to muany people, fairly or not. You had showed and given your love and care when she was alive. I believe she will miss you from beyond.

Hello dear afternoontea. I am so sorry for the loss of your dear friend, who left a baby of six months old with no more sight of his mother and a husband with no dear wife of his own. But I do wish her a peaceful soul in her world there. Bless her and her family.

My condolences to you and the family of your friend. It is sad to know that her child will not be able to grow up knowing her and the love she had to give. Cancer is indeed a silent killer. Like you I hope that the cure for cancer will be found soon. I pray that the husband will find the strength to carry on and be there in every way for their child. It must indeed be very hard for him.
I lost my grandmother to cancer as well and even though she had lived a full life it is not easy watching your loved ones having to endure the pain inflicted by this disease. May god bless those who share you and those who your loss. (lol)
