Cheri Decker's battle

Friends,
On Friday morning, August 3, 2012, my mother, Cheri Decker, lost her battle with AML/Myelosdysplastic syndrome. Mom spent nearly a week with out receiving any blood or antibiotics and was not in much pain. Any discomfort felt was a result of surgeries that were not related to her disease and she received painkillers to help her. She wanted me to share this information with you, in hopes to give you some insight.
Sincerely,
Drew Decker
(son)
