Ok You nerds: Listen up... Some of you wanted to know about AlienGirl
This was posted by: auntAgonist

As I posted last night, AlienGirl is scheduled for 4 more rounds of chemotherapy and is resting as much as she can in preparation for this and to try to regain some strength. She's trying to keep her weight up too.

I got this message from her caregiver and I'm posting this here with permission.

"Knowing that there are people out there who care means a lot. Somebody who's in her situation often wonders what they did that ever affected anybody's life, and how the world is different for them being in it. That there are so many people who know her through DU, who care how she is doing and who are looking forward to having her back is evidence that she has made a mark on the world and on the lives of others. It's evidence of that meaning that people look for to give them peace and to give them courage."


I'll post as I get updates.

thanks.

5. Thank you! But why so adversarial? This isn't "us v them"
It just is the end of this community. Nobody under any illusions. Your information is welcome though. Please know that.

Teddy, if people want to go to DU3 they will. If they don't, life goes on. Don't take it personally; they are just sick of the parade of people on DU3 coming over here and selling the new board, sometimes abrasively so.

I love you, Tucker/Alien Girl. All the good vibes I can possibly send are on their way to you.

6. I understand that, and I understand the fact that many may not want change.
I am not going to push DU3 on this forum, period. Everyone here makes there own decission...... But please know, that I will miss all of you. Most of you here don't realize, but your posts are very important to many of us. Like I said in an earlier post, best of luck and hope that you find the place that best suits you. Best of luck.

8. I have seen bravery by cancer patients that is equal to that to be found on any battlefield.
Please tell me if you can, what are her chances?

Pardon me for being so blunt but I want to know.

10. Lasher, when she wrote about her conditon a while back
she indicated a lot of metastasizing, and things were not looking good.
Then she wrote a bit later she was in a hospice.
That was the last world we had heard for awhile until AA posted.
