Thanks to you all. It seems so tough when things like this happen yet seeing someone wither away is harder. So, despite the sadness, there is an undercurrent of happiness that it was fast and, according to the doctor, so massive that he probably didn't suffer. Still way too young. A certain reminder to live every day to the fullest.
I spent my birthday in Disney World as my sister insisted we stay here in memory of Bob. Another sad, yet happy, day.
So great to be surrounded by such good friends - thank you all again.
