After being diagnosed in December of 2022, having surgery in June 23, chemo radiation in December 23 - January 24 and being told no evidence of disease in March 24. We found out the cancer had returned in his liver and spleen a few weeks ago. He lost 8 or more kg since July 2nd due to vomiting. He has been in and out of hospital with aspiration pneumonia over the past few weeks, and yesterday he died. He was the kindest, most gentle man. The messages I have had from friends have been hard to read, but it’s comforting to know that he made such an impact on those he met. I wish you all the best of journeys through this horrid disease and that your outcomes are better than my husbands.
Hi JayStevie,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I am sure that he (Stevie?) fought this cruel disease with all the strength that he possessed. I hope that you can find the same strength to get you through in the weeks and months to come and that you have many happy memories of your times together to cherish. CB
Hi
I am so sorry. My heart goes out to you and your family. This really is such a cruel disease.

I’m so sorry to read your post. It’s so unfair, especially after your husband so bravely fought the original diagnosis. There are no words. Please take care and know that you and your family are in my thoughts. Julie
Hi Ruddo,
I’m so very sorry to hear your sad news about your partner and I’m sure that you must be feeling like your world has just fallen apart and getting out of bed is pointless. However, I am equally sure, although I never knew them, that your partner would want you to keep on living a full and active life and you can’t do that from bed. That’s how I would feel. It won’t be easy to start with but it will get easier, especially if you have friends and family to help you. I wish you well for the difficult weeks and months that lie ahead. CB
