Hi all, I apologize for being delinquent in corresponding with my class
members that made OHS such a great and comfortable environment!!! Henry
and and I always enjoyed the full and mini reunions we attended. Sadly
the last 1 1/2 years have been a personal rollercoaster of illness that
has swung between disaster and hope... Henry became ill with what we
thought was sciatica and I was diagnose with Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer.
Luckily I have been able to tolerate the chemo very well.
Sadly after a couple hospitalizations that Henry miraculously recovered
from, the surgeon discovered late stage gastric Cancer (hard to diagnose early ) at the end of November during surgery that we thought would resolve his gastric issues. He passed away on Feb.28. I am back on chemo for a second time and am trying to live day at a time (not as easy as it sounds). I'm doing ok and have fabulous support from family (even though they live far away ) and friends. I believe the friendships I formed at OHS laid the groundwork for the importance of friendship through out my life. I promise to be more up when I post again. In fact , I'll start now by saying I was so very Lucky to have been married to Henry for 38 years that brought us closer with every passing year....
