Loss

This entry was posted by on Wednesday, 26 April, 2006 at

A little over 3 years ago, Jennifer Palmer discovered she had cancer. The day before she died, I began to read the blog of her husband, Mark. Jennifer was only 26.

A short 2 years later, he also diagnosed.

A month ago tomorrow, Mark passed away.

My heartfelt condolences to Amy and Micah.


Some time after Jennifer died, Mark married Amy; who, by all accounts, is a wonderful mother to Mark and Jennifer’s son Micah.

What has struck me over and over again is the hope and perseverence that Mark consistently showed in his writing.

Going back through Mark’s blog and reliving their journey, I have been moved to tears. Below are a few of his posts from the journey:
