I just received a email from Kris sister confirming your message.

She passed away on the 6th of October.

Kris, I know your upthere still watching over us and I want you to

know you will never be forgotten. Your valuable advise helped me so

many times. You were one remarkable lady.

So very sorry to hear of the passing of Kris. My thoughts and prayers go out to

her family and friends. We must think of Kris in a better place now.

I am sorry to tell you that Kris passed away on October 6, 2004. She wrote

in a letter that I found after her death to: " Please write a note on the

Yahoo support site thanking everyone for the support they provided. Tell

them that I was disabled for a short length of time due to metastasis to

the duodenum obstructing my bile duct. "

As her sister, I can tell you more than that. Kris was an amazingly

positive, energetic, kind person. She was also an accomplished

veterinarian. During her journey with cancer she had an incredible spirit

that allowed her to sail through her surgeries and chemotherapy

treatments. Only when she went off oxaliplatin for a short time last

spring, because of some bleeding due to radiation damage to the

bladder (note: there was no tumor found there), did the tumor

metastases in the liver/bile duct/duodenum seem to progress.

Unfortunately neither Erbitux nor Avastin plus oxaliplatin was able to

shrink the tumor. Her chemotherapy treatments stopped on September 24,

2004. She had been on TPN for about a month because of an inability to eat

very much but other than that she had led a very normal life.

She often mentioned the support group and spoke of many of you as

though you were all close friends. You all meant a great deal to her.

Thank you,

Karla

I am so saddened by this news. Kris was a wonderfully caring person

and must have been an extraordinary veterinarian.

May you find comfort in the goodness of her life.

Please accept my sympathies for the loss of your sister and may God

grant you much needed strength in the days ahead. Remember, she has

only passed through another door and her spirit and love will always

be with you.
