Title: A very close friend
Post by: Peyton45 on December 11, 2016, 10:40:30 AM
A friend of mine just recently passed away with Stage 4 Thymine cancer. He was diagnosed only a few months ago and this past Monday it finally took his life. He was an amazing man and today I have to go and say my goodbyes. It's so sad to think that only a few weeks ago he was fine and still running his business and now I'll never see him again. What scares me the most is that he was only 66 years old and he should have had many more years ahead of him.

It is never easy losing a close friend so I can only pray that you will be able to cope with his departure. At 66 years of age, he would have had many more years ahead of him. The best you can do is celebrate his life as you say your goodbye. I am really sorry for your loss.

I'm so very sorry Peyton. Cancer is such a wicked, ruthless disease that creeps up on a person so suddenly. I pray for strength and comfort for you and the family of your dear friend.
