Anne,

What an inspiring soul you have been for all of us; this news is, well, it's so full of sadness that most of us are without words and definitely full of emotion; will keep you all that much closer in my prayers....may God bless you with the grace needed for this final chapter. Hugs.

Anne, you have been such an integral part of this group, and always willing to chime in to help others, it is just horrible that we don't seem to be able to help you now.

Please know that all our thoughts are with you...

Anne,

I was saddened to hear your news and don't know what to say. I do know that we will all meet in another place someday. Just listen for a loudmouthed "cheeky" Yank and that will be me.

My prayers and love.

Lee

Anne,
I am alive today, because of what I learned from my father passing from bladder cancer. You have inspired many, many people, and I am positive you have saved more lives, and will continue to, than you will ever know. God bless.

Anne,

There are no words to describe how heavy my heart is at your news. Our instincts are to try to make things better for the ones that we care about and when we can’t we are at a complete loss of what to do or say. All I do know for sure is that you are a part of the heart of this community. You have helped so many with your understanding and compassion. When I see someone here fighting their own battles but still reaching out to help others I am seeing the best of what is human in us all.

If you feel like posting please do we are here for you, I hope you know that. If you don’t know that we are still thinking of you.

I can’t take any of this away but I can promise you this. I will keep you in my heart and I will work for as long as I can to try to make sure that the day comes that this monster no longer exists.

Sending you love

Cynthia

Anne, I haven't "chimed in" because I am at a loss for words. Please know you have been in my thoughts and prayers the past several months.
