i knew a family friend was unwell with cancer. very

unwell. her son picked up mum, they are best mates.

just advised by ph that she has been taken of life

support and it is not good. nobody can reach mum,

still at the hospital. news was she is going to die.

Hey Jamie,

Sorry to hear about all of this. Been offline for four days. Just got internet back. Know that you and your family and friend are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope that she goes peacefully. It is always sad to lose somebody that we love so dearly.

Hugs, Karen
