As most of you know, Mike's wife Michelle passed away after a 3 1/2 year struggle with breast cancer on the 24th. I had contacted cpamike about sending flowers and he found her obituary and shared it with me.

good grief.. what a tragedy
life is truly cruel and unfair sometimes..
never moreso then here
I am sick about it.. don't really know Mike
but that doesn't really matter.. I know what it is like to have a beautiful wife
and the thought of this makes me realize how lucky I am.
This is the worst thing... I knew my wife would pass away someday, and I tried to prepare, but I feel really empty.
I lost my wife, my best friend, my lover, my patient if you will, and my job for caring for her all at once.
I love you so much Michelle...I will never forget you, I will care for our children with honor and integrity. Please watch over us, guide us, and give us strength during the loss of you. I feel like this is a dream, or we'll be picking you up at the hospital on Friday, but your not coming home here, you are home in heaven with our father.
I love you baby...
I will never forget you...................
Your husband and children,
"Live everyday, don't throw it away"
Mike, We love you too
my prayers go out to you and your family...

I had to choke it back after that post. I am so sorry. My wife is 33. Our son turns 11 today and we have an 8 year old daughter. I cannot imagine loosing her. I feel exactly the same way about my wife. She is my best friend. I am truly saddened about all of this. Hang in there.

I shared this previously but my wife was diagnosed with a rare form of breast cancer and she was automatically at stage 4. Only 3% of women survive this terrible cancer but through God's will she is with me 9 years later. I faced what Mike faced and, although my wife's outcome is different, I fully understand what he has gone through for the last three years.
My thoughts, prayers and hopes are with you buddy. You have a network of people here who will support you and lend their shoulders for you to cry on. I think I speak for everyone when I say I wish there was so much more we can do for you!! We are all here for you!!
Michelle will now help take care of you and your children as she looks down on you from heaven.
As said by all, we are here for you anytime you need us.

That post of yours made me cry. We have spoken about some personal things over the past year but hearing about Michelle's passing was tough to read. When I tell people about my little girl AND my wife being diagnosed with Cancer ... and then say that I feel lucky ... they look at me like I have two heads. You, unfortunately, know where I am coming from.
PLEASE know, as I have told you before, I am here for you buddy. GOD BLESS Michelle, your family and you.

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
Thanks,

Losing your best friend this young is truly one of life's cruelties. Take the time you need to grieve so that someday you may heal. Most importantly, give those young children of yours a hug. This is one of those times where kids are thrown into a very unfair, unjust situation before they've even reached full emotional maturity, and it breaks my heart knowing how much they are suffering.
Let me know if there's anything I can do for you.
Original post updated.
I do not know what you went through, but my best friend lost his wife to stage 4 Breast Cancer at the age of 30. They were 27 when they were married and 2 months later she was diagnosed. It was a 2.5 year battle and I saw alot of what she went through. Everything from the diet, trips to Mexico to cleanse her blood and treatment after treatment. The fight that I am sure your wife fought is the toughtest thing you will ever have to witness. Words can not heal your pain, but hopefully time will.

Deepest condolences.

Stay well Mike, and my best to your children also.

Thanx Mike - incredible words - my prayers to out to you and the family.
God Bless you and your family as you go through this tough time. This has actually been on my mind alot lately as I am currently going through Chemotherapy for cancer. Your wife will live forever in your heart and with God the Father. Take care....my friend.

Live for yourself and your children, but always keep her in your lives. It's what any person would want at their passing.
I have been following your posts during your wife's courageous struggle, yet never posted.
While I have never lost my wife, I will share my story with you (and have before on these boards). In October 2008, my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. She underwent surgery and was cancer free shortly afterwards. The following spring, in May, my father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He passed away about 8 months later, 4 days after my birthday on December 15, 2009.
I was devastated. How could cancer rip through my family like that in such a short time? This past summer, my sister's breast cancer came back. She underwent another round of surgery, followed by chemotherapy and then radiation; which she just finished up a couple of weeks ago. So far, her scans look great (knock on wood, and thank God.) She is only 40 years old, with two boys ages 10 and 7.
While I dont know exactly what you are going through losing a wife, please know that things will continually get better for you. Your wife is now in a much better place, and looking down on you. If you are a man of Faith, it will carry you through this tough time.
Steve Jobs' sister just said in her memorial over the weekend that his last words were "Oh wow....Oh wow....Oh wow...." I am confident that he saw heaven.
