Final Update

Friday, September 23, 2011

Hello friends,

                    My brother lost his battle and died peacefully in his sleep on Thursday. I will miss him terribly, but I am glad his suffering is over. He fought this battle on  his own terms, with courage and with his mind and sense of humor intact. I wont go in to a lot of details, but I want to thank everyone for going through this with me and for offering me so much love and support. I'll be back soon. Much love, Karen

    i am so very sorry for your loss karen. i know that you were able to spend some wondrous moments with him these past few weeks and for that, I am sure you are forever grateful. since my father's passing this quote has given me much comfort. i hope it will offer you the same:

    "Life is eternal, love is immortal and death is nothing but a horizon. And a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight."
