Dinah was third person ever to respond to my first cry for help when I arrived here almost 2 years ago. She helped in immeasurable ways to calm my fears and guide me through the terror of cancer and it's treatment. Since I first read Brian's post I have unable to reply publicly. I am just stunned. This is the kind of news that no one wants to hear. Although we all knew of Dinah's fight and setbacks none of us wanted to believe that there would be anything less than a miraculous cure or a complete response to treatment, especially for a person who has been such a saint (or inspiration) to the rest of us. I think most of us see ourselves in Dinah's shoes and this latest news gives us one more ugly and terrifying reality to ponder. Dinah has been a torch bearer on how to fight this disease with grace and dignity and I am saddened beyond comprehension.
