Very sad news

This is a very difficult post,but I wanted you all to know why I haven't been back with any updates of the bears that were in progress.My brother passed away Saturday evening.My family is planning his services for sometime this week.What makes this so difficult is that we all knew my brother was diagnosed with prostate cancer two years ago,and with chemo treatment was told the cancer was in remission.He always went for a re-check to make sure everything was under control,so when he had to be rushed to the hospital and was given a series of tests,we were told he was consumed with tumors and stage 4 cancer throughout his body.Now how on earth can a healthcare proffesional let something like this happen!It is just devasting,not only the grief of losing him but knowing something could have been done sooner to prolong his life.Thank you so much for listening,all of my readers are wonderful and I just wanted you all to know.I will be working on my bears,it helps me with cope with all of the stress.I will be back soon,Sharie.
