She is now gone
JEB:
Like Pearl Drums I don't like to put too much of my personal info out the net BUT at 930 am this morning my beautiful wife Chris lost her 5 year battle with cancer. We went to the Mayo Clinic the day after thanksgiving for the start of her final journey. She received the poison chemo for 5 days and then a German bone marrow transplant. Well about a week ago her Dr had that meeting with me that you don't want to have telling me that my wife was shutting down and she didn't have much time left. The transplant had failed. Chris wanted to see her grand kids so I arranged for a medical flight home from Minnesota. We arrived 3 days ago and on that night my son brought our grand kids into her hospice room. My wife's final word on this earth was WOW as her face lit up and her eyes sparkled as she looked at the kids. Chris never once complained during this journey and never shed one tear. Me, I cried a bucket of tears and still doing so.
I only put this out there because you folks didn't know it but you were providing with an outlet I needed as I sat in her room 8 and 9 hours a day. I never missed one day while she was in the hospital since Jan 12th. I got on here and a couple other sites while she slept to take my mind off what was going on. For that I want to say thanks for this site and all you folks that post on here. You didn't know it but everyone one of you help me pull thru this ordeal.
Three people on here have met and know Chris. BJRogg, Clint, osage outlaw and of course Pearl Drums who gave my wife his sons self bow to have. Thanks again to all and please say a prayer for my wife Chris.
