Yesterday, June 6, we lost AZDarleen. She's been here on the boards since January of 2006, struggled with heart damage from the initial chemo, lymphedema and several bouts of cellulitis, and finally extensive mets. She's home in heaven now with her loving Father, leaving behind a devoted and delightful husband, kids and grandkids. Darleen weathered everything with a smile, an infectious laugh, and a huge dose of generosity and warmth toward every woman who's travelling this path.

Her family asks that any gracious donations made be directed to breastcancer.org.

So glad you've flown free, dear Sister, but I miss you already!

So sad to read this post. My sincere condolences to Darleen's family and friends. She went through so much from treatment SE's. I'm sure you were a great friend Binney, and I'm sorry for your pain too.

 Binney - I'm so sad to read this ... but know that Darlene is another angel in heaven and that she was welcomeed by all of our sisters who preceeded her.  I'm so sorry for the loss of yet another sister.   We need that cure and we need it now.  Too many families are being affected by this disease.

How very sad.  My sincere condolences to her loved ones.  We certainly do need a cure, too many lives, too short-lived.

I have been put on this frightening journey against my will, but I do not have to travel it alone.
