A message from Donna

Donna has asked me to write to you all for her because she is just to weak, but she wanted to do a final posting. Please accept this as if it is coming from her.



Dear Friends,

I want you to know how much I appreciate your friendships, your love and encouragement and your prayers.  I came on the forum like everyone else looking for information.  I did not expect to find the love and friendships that I have found on MH.  It is so much more than a place to gather information on OvCa.  I have made friendships on here that I know I will take with me. We have laughed together, cried together, schemed together and mourned together.  We have been able to accomplish some wonderful things on here and I know that you all will watch over the forum and keep it the loving, supportive, fun place it has become.

I am throwing up quite a bit but they are controlling it as best they can. I am on enough pain medication that I don't hurt.  The survival instinct is very strong in all of us and when I started having heart problems tonight I fought it like a dummy and realized I shouldn't have.  I am very sleepy and right now I am having trouble breathing. I just want to go peacefully.

Throughout this ordeal you all have kept my spirits up with so many notes, msgs, phone calls and prayers, but now it is time to say goodbye and I would like to ask that you all pray that this ends quickly now.   I don't want to go, so please don't think that I just gave up.  I would like to have another 50 yrs the same as anyone, but there is nothing left to fight for and it is time to let go.

You all have been just amazing and I love you very much.  Those of you that have become my closest friends know who you are.  I want you to know that I hold you close to my heart and I thank you for all the laughs.  We had a lot of fun on here and I want you to remember those times. I know you will continue to fight the good fight and I expect you to win. I will be watching over you all.  When you think of me I expect it to be with a grin for my wickedly dry sense of humor and not with tears of unhappiness.

With much love and appreciation,
Donna

Donna,

I do not know you.. I lost my mother to OvCa at a very young age, so I come to the OvCa forum to read everyone's stories and to possibly get an idea of what she went through.. I found yours. I pray that you go painless and peaceful. I asked my mother to await your arrival and take your hand and hold it ever so tightly so you arent afraid.

Peace be with you Donna..

MK


Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Donna, I raeally wish we would have been able to meet in person, but I want you to know what an amazing woman you are.  We prayed for you at church yesterday, and I know that you are safe in God's hands.  I have no doubt that when you meet God, he will say "Well done my good and faithful servent" and wrap you in his loving arms.  What a loss for us, but what a great gain Heaven will be getting.  Go in peace dear Donna.  You will never be forgotten.  Love you, Kasie

Even though we (you & me) don't know each other, I send you my love and hope you have peace in the days to come.  There are many angels here on earth that love you deeply and there are many angels in heaven awaiting your beautiful presence, when the time comes.

May God be with you always.

Love, Angie

Your spirit will live on, always............
I enjoy looking at your beautiful photos. Everytime I see a deer, a beautiful bird, a beaver, rabbits, etc  - I will think of you and smile.  Thank you for your amazing will and you have fought a valiant fight.  I wish you peace and freedom from the pain.
