This is Wendy's husband Jim. Luckily, she saved her password so I could log in. I know she followed and actively posted to this group so I just wanted everyone to know that Wendy passed yesterday in her home. She was surrounded by loving caring family for her final days. I want to thank all the brave women on this forum for sharing their expertise, experiences and support with Wendy. She benefited greatly from everyone's support.

Jim I am so sorry for your loss.  I was just talking to someone recently saying I haven't heard from her in a long time.  Now I could kick myself for not reaching out.  I can't remember for sure but I'm thinking that picture of the girls was taken when you all went to disney world.  That was a time she treasured and really enjoyed.  I wish this darn disease wouldn't destroy so many truly wonderful people!  Please accept my condolences

Jim,

Wendy was such a vital member of this site while she felt well enough to participate.  I always enjoyed reading her posts... she was my kind of girl.  It pains me to write anything conventional... words are just so inadequate to express my condolences for you and your lovely family.  Please tell your girls that another Stage IV sister thought the world of their mother.
