creekland 41,103 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I'm another who had no idea she was sick and feel awful for her family. I enjoyed her posts and will really miss her. I do want to thank you for taking the time to update us... It's coming on the same day I learned that a co-worker (fairly young - 10 year old son) has cancer that has spread and was given 6 months - 2 years, so right now my mind is reeling to be honest. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest inoubliable Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I can't wrap my mind around this. If anyone could have beat her illness, I figured it would have been her. :( I never expected that she'd lose the fight. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Catwoman 74,050 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I didn't even know she was sick, so this is such an incredible shock. I can't even imagine what her husband and daughters are going through right now. :crying: I will miss her posts here, and can't even begin to imagine that she died. She seemed so full of life and energy. Portland_hill, thank you so much for letting us know what happened; I'm sure we all appreciate it. I don't know if you have posted the news over on the General Education board, but there are many people there who don't always check this Chat forum and I'm sure they would want to know about Moira. They may also have more information for you about her homeschooling plans for her daughters. Please let her family know how sad we are, and that whomever will be taking over the homeschooling should feel encouraged to start posting here, so we can all help her out in any way we can. It's the very least we can do in memory of Moira. :grouphug: 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's sad she didn't get to wade into the fray very far, but her humour truly shone through it all the same. Battle over. Life well lived, my friend.
