Facebook Message for Forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From Bev and Jeff

I would like to thank everyone that is on the Crohn's Forum, for the card and the thread that was printed and sent to me. It touched my heart deeply and brought a smile to my face to see everyone around the world praying for me and thinking of me;
and my husband would like to thank you for being there for me when I needed you most.
May ...God bless, each and everyone of you.

Beverly doesn't have her laptop yet, I just typed it like she was saying it. Sorry everyone if it looked like she was on and wasn't.
 
Rosemary thank you so much for posting this - i was starting to worry that the envelope hadn't reached her for some reason!


Bev, Jeff... i hope you guys continue to log in here and read this thread, as the support and care we have for you all goes on and on, as does our friendship - and our promise to be here for you whenever you need. i'm so glad you received the card and everyone's messages, and i hope it brings you smiles and comfort in those lonely moments.

((hugs)) to you Bev, and to your lovely family. xxx
 
Bev, lots of hugs to you and your family, you are in my thoughts and prayers (my own version) and I hope with all of my heart that you have a complete recovery really soon. ((((((HUGS))))))) to you and your wonderful family.
 
Bev, I've read this thread and don't know you but I'm very sorry you're going through this. I wish you the best care and comfort during this trying time.
 
Any news on how the chemo is doing? I don't know much about it, does it take a while?

Still thinking of you everyday Bev! e-hugs :)
 
UPDATE FROM FB:

Beverly is in the pre- surgery waiting room. They are running behind. Was supposed to be at 11:00am but could be 12 noon the way it looks now. To everyone that doesn't know, she is getting her right foot thoroughly cleaned out and there mig...ht be a toe or 2 removed. There is no telling at this time. Main thing is cleaning all the blisters out and seeing exactly what we are dealing with. She has been losing 3 to 8 pounds every day for the past 2 weeks, but between Mon. and Wed. she lost 20pds. she is now down to her normal weight of 160, if she drops any more of course that will not be too good. Will keep everyone posted later when I find more out, I am rambling.


SECOND UPDATE:

Beverly is sleeping, has been since she got back to her room. She has been fidgetty and talking in her sleep about nothing that I can understand. I do hope she is sleeping well, though. I really don't think she know's yet that she is now missing 3 toes.
I will be there bright and early in the morning to talk with her about it.
This year has sucked since my birthday in March.
 
Bev is such a great person. I'm thinking of her and wishing her the best. Keeping her in my thoughts and prayers.
 
thanks from me too, Rosemary - you're doing a great job of keeping us all posted.

wishing Bev a speedy recovery from this op - and i hope things turn in a good direction in every way, very soon. you're in our thoughts all the time, Bev... hurry up and get strong, honey - you have a lot of reading and posting to catch up on :) xxx
 
Thanks for the update......I hope she can bounce back from this - with a speedy recovery -hope to see you posting a note here soon!
 
I spoke to my grandpa last night who used to preach at our old church and asked him if he could have the whole congregation pray for you Bev. My grandparents said that they would and that they are doing a prayer circle today at the church where they will pray for you but they also prayed for you last night over the phone.

Keep up the high hopes Bev! Word of you is spreading and more and more people are coming together praying for you. :)
 
I have only just read this as haven't been on here for a long while. I am in shock, and I am just so so so sorry to hear this. Bev will be my prayers and will be wishing her well

Hi everyone: I got a message from Jeff who was typing for Bev,

Since she just had three middle toes on right foot amputated they are waiting a few days for observation and then decide: Chemo first or second surgery first. The foot will be needing more surgery at some point in time. Bev also asked me to tell everyone she said HI!!!
They will post updates when they can...

I will keep everyone updated as I get information. I know everyone worries and wants to know how Bev is doing.

"Take care Bev we love and miss you!!! You are always in my thougts and prayers"
 
thanks Rosemary :)


HI!! back to Bev :) continuing to think of you every day, and sending my love & healing wishes..... xxxxxxxx
 
I'm hoping for a speedy recovery Bev
You're still in my thoughts, hope you're comfortable and peaceful
big hugs your way

Hi Bev.. You continue to be in my prayers.
Rest and do what the doctor's ask....and get well soon .

Lots of love and hugs~Nancy
 
Hiya Bev, I too think of you every day and try to send you strength and healing thoughts. (((((hugs))))) to you and your wonderful family.
 
Just wanted to let everyone know that 10/25 was Bev and Jeffs 24 Anniversary!!!!! Bev was not doing so good today. She has been in severe pain, sick to her stomach and dozing off a lot. - This is according to Jeff.

Bev- I am praying for you. We love and miss you!!!!
 
Hope this is the beginning of the end of your trials and that things start to get better and easier for you Bev, and your adoring family.
 
Happy belated Anniversary Bev and Jeff.

Though Ive not yet posted my condolences to Bev and her hubby, my heart goes out to you guys and your family. Bev was one of the first people to welcome me to the forum and we share a beautiful name. Such a kind soul she is, and has away of making ppl feel welcome and a lil better. Beverly, I hope and pray for you everyday! May your higher power help you through your difficult times and give peace to you and your family. My thought and prayers~
 
No News.. I have asked a few times but have not heard anything. Will let everyone know if I hear anything...

From Bev's Daughter on FB:

Hello Rosemary, My mom is hanging in there. She had a surgery yesterday that consist of her having the rest of her toes on her right foot removed because she has no pulse in her foot sue to the blood clots. My dad actually has been very sick with a cold. So he has not been able to go see her for a while. But her spirits are still up. Now that this surgery is finished they can start her 2nd round of chemo. They will start it when her foot heals. then after her chemo they want to send her to a rehab place so they can teach her how to walk again because she hasn't walked or sat up in over 2 months
 
Thank you so much for the update Rosemary!

Thinking about you everyday Bev and hoping and praying that you will very soon be on the road to recovery..............

:hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug::hug:

Loads of love, :kiss:

thanks once again Rosemary - i've checked in here every day and it's always an anxious time when we don't hear an update for a while..

although i am sad to read that Bev has had to undergo further surgery on her foot, i actually think this is overall a positive update, and that it's good to hear a real action plan has been put forward.... here's looking forward to that day when Bev takes her first steps - literally - to getting her life back.
 
Thanks Rosemary!! Bev, if you ever come on here, just know we are all still here thinking and praying about you!!
 
Thanks so much for the update Rosemary. Bev you are on the comeback trail and are in my thoughts and prayers on a daily basis. Keep on fighting sweetheart!
 
UPDATE FROM JEFF ON FB:

My wife's kidney's are not functioning, shutting down or not producing urine. Her blood pressure dropped yesterday to around 64 over 30something but came back up all this after having the rest of her toes amputated on Saturday. We need a miracle right about now...

Praying for a miracle Bev.... we love you
 
Oh God! It's so heartbreaking!
Always thinking of you Bev & Jeff, stay strong
xxx
 
Oh dear, poor Bev. I really hope that things take a turn for the better for her soon. I'll keep Bev & family in my thoughts. Keep fighting, Bev!

Thanks Rosemary for posting the update. I frequently check this thread, hoping for some good news. I'll just keep hoping!
 
sending all my love and wishing Bev all the strength she needs to get through this - keep fighting Bev, you can overcome this.

miracles can happen, don't ever give up hope..

((hugs)) x
 
FROM JEFF ON FB THIS EVENING;;;;;

Today, God called my love, strength, solid ground, best friend and just SO MUCH MORE to sit next to Him with all our family and friends that have gone before. I will always love and miss you SweetHeart. I pray that someone finds a cure for such a nasty, made by the Devil himself, Disease called cancer.


MIS B you will be forever missed....... we love you
 
My deepest sympathy to the family. Bev is among all the wonderful angels who will keep a close eye on all all of us. All my hugs to the family.
 
I am so sorry to hear this. Bev was a very special lady. Thoughts and prayers for the family during this difficult time. She will be missed.
 
I am deeply upset by this news. :(

I felt a connection with Bev ever since the first day she was on the boards. She was such a loving and caring spirit who will truly be missed.

I feel like a close friend is now gone. So sad she was not able to come back to the boards before this happened. Hopefully now she knows how much all of us love her and miss her as she looks down on us from above.

What a beautiful soul that touched our lives, if only for a short time. I feel blessed to have been able to know such a woman who fought with dignity and strength.

My prayers go out to her friends and family as they deal with this loss. Praise the Lord she is finally pain-free and at peace. We love you, MisB!
 
Poor Bev. This is such sad news. Praying for her and her family during this time. She will definitely be missed by all.
 
Oh god this is so sad, I don't know what to say..........

Bev, I miss you so much but I know that you have gone to a better place, one that is free of disease and pain. I will never forget you Bev and you will always be in thoughts and my heart, I will carry you with me everyday.

To Bev's family,
I am so sorry for your loss. You shall also be in my thoughts and prayers. The days and weeks ahead are going to be dark and difficult but I know you will get through with the help of your friends and faith, but most of all with your love for that very special lady and your love for each other.

So very sad and heartbroken, :(:(:(

Your Aussie mate, love always, :hug:

I am so very sorry to hear Bev lost the battle..she fought so hard...
My deepest condolences to her husband and family.
She was such a bright light here on the Forum....
and I know, that light will shine on Forever.

Somewhere a silence
is heard far away
and the brightness of day
fills the night,
Where the trials of life
are resolved into peace --
when a soul finds its way
to the light.

I am not active on the forum anymore but someone who is still active told me of Bev's passing, and I am deeply saddened to hear this. Bev was there for me and all of us and supported us and she had an upbeat personality. She will be truly missed and I can only send prayers and thoughts to her family at such a terrible time of their loss and my sympathies are with them. Farewell, you are truly one of God's gifts.
 
Jeff your love for Bev has touched all of us in a very unique way. Thank you for sharing that love. Bev will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. Lots of love and hugs going out to you tonight.
 
I am very sad to hear of Bev's passing she offered a tremendous amout of support and love to many members of our family during her time with us. I am sorry for the pain her family must be feeling and for the void that will be left here by her passing. She was and is an angel and will likely be watching over her amazing family to help them through this tragic loss. Bless you my dear and thank you so much for all that you have done for me and others. I will truly miss your friendship and heartfelt advice.
 
Oh,no...I'm so so sorry. Bev's kind words, encouragement and support is her legacy and will live on forever.

Neither Crohn's, nor death can take that from her, and I feel grateful to have got to know her better in her posts.

My deepest sympathy goes out to her family, may she rest in peace.

Bev was a truly lovely individual and a bright presence here on CF. We'll be thinking about you, Bev.
 
I'm so sad and feel so sorry for her and her family and friends. I was talking to her on the live chat option on Facebook when she was first admitted to the hospital. She was only supposed to be there for the weekend. We joked and laughed and then she went to bed and I never got to speak to her again. :(
 
this is so hard to write. to say i am sorry to read the news about our lovely Bev today, feels like a massive understatement.

her family has lost a wonderful person, we have lost a very special friend, and the earth has lost one more shining light.

i will always remember Bev as someone full of love and joy, which was apparent from the minute she joined our forum, and as a real fighter - a lady who kept her dignity and stamina way past the point where many of us would have given up.

you will be missed here greatly, Bev, but i am glad that your days of fear and suffering are over now. rest in peace, special friend. xxxx
 
so sorry to hear of the news of bev, only joined the forum a few days ago but hav been reading on this thread
bev you were well thought of on here RIP love
love to your family
 
I can only hope that I have touched a fraction of the lives that this woman has apparently touched when it is my time. I did not know her but have followed the thread and quietly prayed for her. I could tell by her husband's writing that she knew the lord and for that there will be peace reassurance for her family in these coming weeks and months.

Bev rest in peace and know that you were well loved even by those that didn't know you.
 
I am so deeply saddened by this news, Bev was such a wonderful girl, and although ill herself, was there for everyone through thick and thin, and I know she will always be there looking down on us! She made me laugh, and she thought I was mental! She sent me funny PMs every week, and told me that she loved me very much.
I'm so upset, I've lost a good buddy.
Dear Jeff, may all of you find comfort with happy memories.
Rest in Peace Dear Bev, xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
I want to express my deepest sympathies to Jeff and all of Bev's family. Our Crohn's family will certainly join Bev's in mourning this loss for some time, but I take some relief in knowing that her suffering has finally ended.

If anything is posted on facebook on where donations can be made in Bev's memory please post the information here!
 
Ive been away for a few days and have only just seen this.

Send all my thoughts and prayers to Bev's family.

May the souls of the departed through the mercy of God rest in peace and rise in glory.
Rest eternal grant unto them O Lord, and let light perpetual shine upon them.
May they rest in peace and rise in glory!

Xx
 
I haven't been on much lately and just saw this very sad news. I will greatly miss Bev and her wonderful attitude. She was such a caring, loving person.
 
I will miss you, my friend. You brought joy to our lives and took our minds off our troubles when you had so much more than us. Your courage and strength was addictive and your friendship will always be cherished.
Jeff and family, Janis and I would like to express our deepest condolences. Our prayers are with you to help give you the strength to make it through these sad days.

Rest easy, my friend. You are in strong and gentle hands now.
 
I'm no longer active on the forum, but I came in to check on Bev to see if there was any news. I'm so sad to hear that cancer has claimed our Bev. She was truly an inspiration to all of us, always keeping her humor and hope until the very end. I believe God put her on this forum for a reason and that people like her are so special and such a rarity. My prayers are with her and her family in this time of mourning for all of us and it sets me at ease that now she is in a better place where there is no pain and suffering, only happiness and peace.
 
Hi, I'm Brittany, Bev's Daughter-in-law. I got on here just to make sure that you all were informed of her passing, and to let you all know that on behalf of my family that we all appreciate all the prayers, kind words, and encouragement that you have given us and had given Bev. Reading all of your posts I am taken back. I don't think any of us in the family actually knew how many people that Bev touched and inspired everyday. You have all been a big blessing to her and to our family. Thank you all so much for everything.

Brittany Haynes
 
Hi, Brittany. I am so sorry for your family's loss. Bev definitely touched and inspired all of us with her strength, grace, and humor through this terrible situation, and we all miss her presence here very much. Thank you for coming here to post a message for us, and again, I am very sorry for your loss.

Edited to add: Brittany, someone else asked the same question above, but you may not have seen it. Is there an address where we could send donations in Bev's memory? Thank you.

Brittany, thank you so much for taking the time to think about us and come in here..

as you'll have read, Bev was very much a valued part of our family, and we've all been affected by what she's been through, and what's happened.

it's amazing how we can feel close to someone who we've never met in real life, have only known through the internet.... but sometimes it really does happen that way - real friendships are made, and it hurts just the same as if we knew that person in RL when something like this happens.

my thoughts have been with you all for a long time now, and will continue to be so... i wish you, your dad, and the rest of your family strength and courage through these sad days.

Sue. x
 
Obituary & Donations...

i have taken the liberty of copying and pasting the Obituary for Bev into this thread.

as has been mentioned here already, and we can now read that Bev's family are accepting monetary donations, i would just like to say that any of you who feel you'd like to donate to the family can contact either myself, David, or Nancy Lee via private message, to obtain details on how to do so.

all pms will be in strictest confidence.
