George’s Story

Site created on May 23, 2018

The “My Story” portion of my CaringBridge account cannot properly store and display my writing. I have spent time with their tech staff. The current system cannot handle my file. They did say they might consider modifications to enhance their system to accommodate similar requests in the future.

The “My Story” segment of my CaringBridge account takes the story of my current battle with cancer from the time I first felt symptoms up to when I was ready to begin treatments. From there journal entries are used to help keep everyone up to date on my progress. To fully understand journal entries, the story should be read first to obtain the proper background.

I’ve published the story as a PDF file and placed the file on my account on the Keep&Share web site. You may rest assured the file is safe for downloading.

Journal entry by Dorothy Holmes —

I am so saddened to write George(Gee) ended his fight with cancer on Sunday, September 29th at 7:15 pm with family and friends at his side. Gee fought so hard and was hoping the clinical trial that he was a part of would help not only him but future patients with very rare cancers.  Unfortunately, that was not the plan for Gee.  Thank you so much for all the cards, phone calls and all the prayers and prayer groups that have followed him through this nasty journey called cancer! Gee was so touch and felt the love that everyone was sending.  I truly miss my Honey Bun but I find comfort knowing that I will once again be reunited with him one day.  Your riding once again my love...❤️
