This post made my day – no, it made my year!
You don't know me but my husband, Bob, was diagnosed in 2005 and lost his battle with the beast in 2010. He fought hard, and, though I didn't always agree with his decisions, they were HIS decisions and I always remembered the things that you said. I used to read your posts to him and remind him that some people do win the battle – you are one tough SOB and he loved your no nonsense approach to melanoma. I hope that you will always remember that you helped so many of us – the silent ones – and that we are always cheering you on. Thanks for sharing your life and your courage and your attitude with all of us. Keep up the good fight.

Jill – I am so sorry. This is very difficult for both of you. My husband had two rounds of gamma knife for his brain lesions and what you are describing sounds similiar to what happened with Bob. I wanted to share a website with you that was my bible during the last months of Bob's illness – that and hospice. I called hospice in early and they were wonderful. The website is Brain Hospice and it is a wealth of information. Blessings to you and Eric.

Laura – I am very sorry about your husband. I lost my Bob on July 31st after a 5 year battle. I am in Texas so I can't participate locally but I would love to be involved in an online group. You can email me anytime – maybe we can help each other. [email protected]
