Thank you for all you did for us, Caryn. Prayers of comfort for you, Zack, and all of Caryn's friends and family. I hate that this dreadful disease has taken another one of the wonderful souls who so generously shared their love and wisdom here. How much must we sacrifice until a cure is found? May you rest in eternal peace, Caryn, and feel the love we all have for you.

I'm just so sad to read this. After seeing the other posts about dear ones departing this life, I couldn't continue with catching up on the Forum yesterday. And now, today, there's this...

Thank you, dear Donna, for posting this update.

May Zach find Comfort and Peace, knowing that Caryn is now truly out of pain and suffering. She fought hard,

Peace and Blessings to all,

Deborah.

I have always heard (though it may be an old wive's tale) that deaths of those we know come in "threes."  Unfortunately, it seems to be true in the case of our TN friends over the course of the last couple of weeks.  Prayers for Caryn's son Zach and all the families.

My heart is so heavy upon hearing this news. So many times I question why this horrible disease continues to take so many of our young women yet lets older gals like myself survive it. But then I remind myself that God is the only one who has the answers. May Caryn's family be comforted during this time by the love of God.

Dear BamaRachel,
My husband believes if (something happens twice, it will happen a third time). I think it is a superstition. Anyway, we have actually heard of 4 deaths of TN sisters in the past 2 weeks. Kim (Pink Panther), Jackie (Jloon), Barbara (Barbi), and Caryn (Zacar). So Sad and let us keep all their families in our prayers.

Dear twin-sister Genie, I have been dwelling on the subject also of why so many of our young, beautiful, vibrant wives and mothers are lost to this disease. It breaks my heart. I fall into the older catagory, like you, and wonder why them?

God Bless,
Lillie
