A Word About My Aunt


This will be brief. I recently wrote about my Aunt Carol. Five years older than me so we grew up together.

I told you about her lymphoma. She has been battling leukemia for several years.

The lymphoma won. Carol died May 15. I will miss her.

      Thank you. I will relay condolences to her husband, son, and the rest of her family. It will really be hard on my uncle who is her twin brother.

    I am so very sorry for your loss. Reading your comment above, please let her relatives know how your readers have come to know Carol from your blog.
    She was close to your age, she must have been more like a sister to you. I am sorry for your loss. x

    I wondered how she was doing. Sorry to hear about her but the final stages of cancer is no picnic.
    Thinking about you and your family.
