    Dear Mandy,

    My heart aches for you and your family. Your mom truly was a very special person and the world was a better place with her in it. I will keep you in my thoughts.

    Love Maryann

    Dear Mandy,

    So very sorry for you and your family who will all be in my prayers. Your dear Mum was a jewel. Her light shines on always in the hearts of those who loved her. May you find some peace.

    Rest in peace dear Annie. You are loved. You will be missed. You made a difference to many people whose lives you touched with your wise counsel, sense of humor and comforting words.


    Love, Paula

    Mandy, I am incredibly saddened to read about your Mom. This string will never be the same. I've said it before...she was a hall of famer! She will ALWAYS be remembered! My mom passed in 2001 from cancer. When she did, a nun said the most comforting words to me. I'll share them with you. She said, "Your mom closed her eyes to us...but opened them again to the face of Jesus Christ." I know that happened for your Mom as well. God bless you and your family in this difficult time.

    Mandy, I am so sorry to hear your sad news, your mother has been and will be greatly missed by those of us who were blessed to have known her thru this site. She kept us entertained with her wit,stories of her family, her stories of her pets, of her "old feller"! She was always there in our pocket when we needed encouragement and a helping hand. She was sunshine in a pocket. May you and your family take comfort knowing she was loved worldwide, prayers for all of you during this hard time

    so sorry Mandy. What a beautiful soul your mom was! She touched so many of our lives and made the days easier to get through with her kind, wise and humorous words. She was a gem. We were blessed to have her with us on this thread. She will be missed by so many

    My dear Mandy, I'm sure your heart is heavy. Your mom loved her daughters so much. And your dad, and her dogs. She and I went through treatment about the same time for similar diagnosis. All the sisters on this thread had such joyful conversations and laughs during those days. I loved her stories of her dog getting into things. I feel honored to have known her and will treasure her memory forever. Blessings. Jan

    Dear All

    Just checking in. Its been a year since my last post. First of all, so sorry to hear about Annie. xxx

    Just a recap, my wife was diagnosed with TNBC back in October 2014, while she was 15 weeks pregnant. I'm pleased to say that over three years have now passed, and so far so good! My son is also fine! Looking cute (just like his Dad!) and causing mayhem at every chance. Obviously no idea what the future holds, but so glad and thankful to get this far.

    Wish I had more time to post here, but I guess life with a busy job and two lovely but completely insane children takes up all my time! But I do always spare a thought and prayer for all of you.

    For anyone going through this right now, stay strong and there is light at the end of tunnel.

    Big massive Christmas hugs to all of you lovely ladies (and the few other men on here supporting their loved ones)

    Cathy - as always an extra big hug for you!

    Tom

    Mandy - I read your post on fb and am just now finding the words to post...although I’m still finding it hard to convey how special your mom is. Your mom is one of the most strong, caring, loving, beautiful women I am lucky enough to call my friend. We became close through this thread and she became so very dear to me. My heart is broken... I am so sorry for you and your families loss. She loved you all so fiercely. Sending you so much love and prayers.

    Mandy - so very sorry to hear about your Mom Annie - like others have said, she was a gem and a great boost to all while we were going through our treatments. She will be sorely missed by those who got to know her here on this site. My condolences to you and you family as you go through this incredibly challenging and painful time - warm thoughts and prayers coming to you, your Dad and your whole family. Thanks for letting us know.

    Mandy I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m happy though, that Annie is with her lovely Tessa again, and free of pain at last. It must have been a hard year. As the time passes you will find that the happy memories shine brighter and brighter. X

    Dear Annie,

    Thank you so much for always being a cheerleader to us, and being the glue that held our community together. You are one special lady, and I'm glad I had the opportunity to know your caring ways, your laughter, and funny stories. You are surrounded by much love, hugs, and tears right now. You will always be remembered.

    Love,

    Mandy so saddened for you and your family. Your mum was one of the first people to welcome me to the board last year and made me smile with her wisdom and kind words. My heart is heavy for her loss. I don’t post much anymore as I am battling stage 3 uterine carcinosarcoma and am in the middle of chemo again. Wishing all a happy holiday and new year.

    Love to all

    Hello everyone,

    I don't post often on this board, and in reading over I can see there's been the loss of a beloved poster named Annie. I did not know her, but I send heartfelt empathy out to her family, and to those who loved her and knew her. She sounds like a wonderful person.

    Just wanted to send love out to all on this Xmas eve, and belated Hanukkah. I finished treatment in January and am nearly two years out from dx (3 more months), but this time of year is a bit challenging. I've lowered my cooking standards and the house will be a bit cluttered, it's ok. I still get tired faster, and take my breaks as needed, but one day at a time. Wishing you all well. I am so grateful for the sisterhood (and brotherhood) and support of these boards. Love out.

    I’m so sorry about the passing of your precious momma. So many of these boards were blessed by her kindness, love, wit and pure joy. We loved hearing her stories about her old feller and she made us all laugh when so many times we wanted to scream and cry. You and your family and those that loved her are in my prayers. Dearest Annie we miss you Pink sister. Dance on the streets of gold!!!!

    Hi everyone, I came on the boards to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I have been absent, and reading thru the thread I see some good things, some not so good, and then...Annie. Oh my, words cannot express how much we all loved you dear Annie. You made a scary journey less scary. With your warmth and laughter and love we all just felt better. You know I loved you. Thanks Mandy for letting us know she is now at rest. Al, your words give me comfort. BChusband, so glad your family is well. Cathy, sending you, Val and Another my love. Sylvia, Merry Christmas across the pond. To all you newbies, welcome. To my dear old friends, our journey together now goes into a new year, hoping for good health, for joy. Much love, Meadow

    Hello Meadow,

    I was so happy to see your post and I just wanted to wish you all the very best. I do still look on TNs but find it hard to keep up with all the new names. I do remember yours very well and, of course, I remember Annie and the lovely strong and supportive person that she was. My thoughts go out to her daughter Mandy and all the family.

    How are you getting on? I do wish you health and happiness for the New Year.

    I send best wishes from the UK to everybody on the TNs and send support and comfort to all of you going through treatment. It can be a tough journey, but you can do it.

    Fond thoughts.

    Sylvia xxxx

    Meadow... what a nice surprise to wake up Christmas morning and see a post from you. So happy that you are doing well. As you might have seen as you read through the posts, I just had my two year cancerversary. Life is less scary but every once in a while I remember that I “had” breast cancer. For all of us, I hope “had” stays in our lives. I’m sending you a big Christmas hug.

    Family and I are doing okay.

    We're having a snowy, windy and bitter X-mas Day in the North Country!

    Hello Teka,

    I was glad to know that all is well with you and your family.

    I do not envy you that cold weather. A cousin of mine recently came back from a trip to New York. She really enjoyed it but did comment on how cold it was.

    Keep up the good work and I shall always be glad to hear from you.

    Fond thoughts.

    Sylvia xxxx
