Aloha Ohana! After a 5 year battle with cancer, my partner, Jay, has passed from us. He was a trooper between his chemo and radiation treatments and kept an optimistic lookout, but his body could just take so much. Recently, the cancer metastasized from his throat and chest area to his lower back, pelvis, and legs. After our trip to Maui over his birthday in late October, his body started shutting down and his pain increased. Hospice took over on Wednesday, and he passed peacefully and comfortably early Saturday morning. I will miss him dearly.

Mahalo for everyone's support and positive thoughts over these past few years. I know TikiKate is showing him around right now. :)

Aloha!
Myke

I'm very sorry for your loss. I lost my mother to cancer many years ago, but my father passed away this past year, so loss is still a bit fresh for me.

Just remember, everyone has to die, but not everyone has to love and be loved. The two of you were very lucky to have each other.
