oh my, TuDiabetes friends, this is shattering news. Tears are flowing here, and I’m sending everyone a big big hug. Like so many others, Kathy was one of my first friends here. I nearly lost my mind when we almost lost her soon after, she’d had some surgery that did not go well and I think a heart attack during the surgery caused her kidneys to fail and she was on dialysis for at least a year afterwards. It was a MIRACLE when she shared the news of her regaining function.
Those early years of TuD there was a great deal of joking around on each others pages, I remember Kathy & @Rphil2 and @Mark46 doing a LOT of passing around music videos and my totally enjoying listening to different tunes, notably Dylan. Of course when @askmanny asked me to make a quilt to represent DHF, Kathy was a must (please take a look at her thoughtful post here about that)
She was not able to make the successful transition to our Discourse platform, so newbies to our community might now know her. I know she was active on facebook and well known throughout the DOC.
This is for you Kathy: May you stay “Forever Young”
