Dear Friends,

Her family and friends thank all of you.

Hi There

My heart goes out to Joy's family & friends. I too am in the process of losing my Dad. After 16 months of uphill battle culminating in one cycle of chemo in-patient and the inability to find a donor match in a very weakened state he has been placed in terminal care. His condition is deteriorating by the day and his Oncologist doubts whether he'll make the week. We are shattered.

I wish to thank Neill & Ruth for this amazing site and wish each and every MDS/Leukemia sufferer the chance to live.

Love to you all
Alison

To the Henry Family,

We are very sorry to hear about Joy's death and hope that your memories of her in better, healthier times are a comfort to you now. We're glad to know that Marrowforums played a useful role in helping all of you deal with MDS and CMML and the problems that go with it.

Kirby, please pass our sympathies to Joy's family.

Sincerely,
Ruth

Alison,

I'm very sorry to hear that your Dad is declining so rapidly. I hope you have the time, as others have talked about, to be with your Dad, hear his stories, and support him.

Keep in touch when you can. And, thanks for your kind words about Marrowforums.

Regards,
Ruth

Hi Ruth,

I'm not going to start a new thread but just to let you know that my Dad passed away on Friday, 22/08. We used the last few weeks to say all we needed to say and he went peacefully. Our prayers were answered.

Much health & happiness to you,
Alison

Dear Alison,

My condolences to you and your family on the loss of your father. What a lucky man he was to have your support.

Sincerely,
Ruth

Alison,

I am saddened to hear of your loss.
