Oh wow, check out my bracelet from Susan (Mrs Fat Cyclist) Nelsen!

I can't believe he and Susan didn't make preparations while she could have made her wishes known. She is definitely at the end. I'm sure Fatty has many friends to help him through it, though.

Some things you don't want to think about when you're young. Denial is powerful.

Some things you don't want to think about when you're young. Denial is powerful.

And it might have seemed like giving up. Or being negative when positive thoughts might help.

So very sad. I don't think he's missing the big details of her wishes - just the "how to handle the logistics of this" details. No one plans for that (at least no one I know...)

Yes, I've been reading Fatty's blog over the last week or two.

Not unexpected, but devastating nonetheless.

I'm not a praying person in the traditional sense, but if anyone needs prayers right now, it's Susan and Fatty and their kids.

Prayers that she will be able to go peacefully and with minimal pain, and prayers that he and their children can find the strength to cope and to carry on.

Gah, it sucks, bigtime.

I just caught up on Fatty's blog (been out of town for work) and it's truly heartbreaking. I'm going through some tough stuff right now personally and reading this really put things in perspective.

Jobob- you are very lucky to have that bracelet. An incredible person made that for you.
