Triple Negative Breast Cancer Sisters Courage to Let Go

 Remembering someone special...
Heaven gained an angel.
Life's new beginning... 

We've lost too many young women to Triple Negative Breast Cancer this past year in our TNBC Sisters support group. This month in January, Three more sisters were called home to our Lord to be our sister angels. They are the real victors in their cancer battles, They fought hard with all they had, clinging to life. In the end, they had the courage to let go... let go of their suffering, the anxiety and their exhaustion as they're in transit to move on to their next life's journey in Heaven. Leaving behind their loved ones, children and friends is the hardest part of their journey, much harder than us saying good-bye to our sweet sisters. God Bless their families and may Michelle Streat, Marie Ashton and Melissa Gollnick rest peacefully now.



"Always in our thoughts - Forever in our hearts."


Michelle Oleson Streat, age 42
Passed January 13, 2013
from nearly 4½ battle with TNBC

Marie Ashton, age 40
Passed January 28, 2013
from TNBC


Melissa Gollnick, Age 35
Passed January 31, 2013 

from TNBC, less than a month 
after recurrence diagnosis

Melissa,

Thank you so much.  It's been a tough month on the other TNBC Sister FB group to lose these wonderful women.  Michelle, Marie and Melissa were just amazing women and taken way too soon.  They had so much life left to live.  This terrible disease make me angry that they've been taken from their families too soon.  I hope others know how terrific they were and will be missed.

Melissa, thanks for posting a tribute to our sweet sisters.  
They were all such wonderful women.  I especially enjoyed Marie's sense of humor.
Those of us who remain in the FB TN group really miss them and are saddened by their loss.
Love,

All 3 of these women were far too young, they were undoubtedly loved by many, it's so hard to see this disease take so many beautiful people so young.
