Journal entry by Kathy (Love) Jarvis —
The Brain what an awesome instrument.
Kathy was diagnosed on August 5th 2013. She would have lived six years. She was a model patient. Nothing but smiles and cooperation. She had 46 days of radiation never sick, and joked about the band of hair She lost. She had one and a half years of Chemo no problem. 35 MRI"S (oh it's just another shunt). 20 Avastin treatments(shoot the juice to me Bruce) She died in my arms. an honor I will always treasure. Kathy decided that there would be no funeral(I went to too many of them) She would be cremated and Her ashes to be scattered in the Pacific Ocean. Of course, I recommended Hawaii. But We found something that worked for us. Kathy was raised in Simi Valley. She went to Royal High school and Moorpark Collage. She was Ventura County. So Her ashes will be placed in the Pacific Ocean just outside of Ventura County. So someday ,maybe, Her ashes will wash back up on a Ventura beach.
I promise all that right now I am chocking up try to figure out a way to Truly Thank each and everyone of You for Your absolute love for Her. She righted my ship!
