Prayer Request RIP : Mrs ROYC75 - Page 7

ROYC75 · 05:19 PM

Carrie J Caswell
Aug,19 1957 - April 11 2018

Good Bye to the love of my life, Mrs ROYC75, married Nov.11th, 1983. It was a great ride of 34+Yrs, of which the last 16 years suffering with (IPF) idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema.

This past Nov. during Thanksgivings, she became ill while in Georgia and found herself in the hospital over the holiday. It wasn't until Dec. 20th, they informed us she came down with cancer to go along with her other 2 illnesses. She was given 3 - 5 months then to live. Knowing that she outlived what the doctors diagnosed her with in 2002 ( IPF ) and only given 18-19 months to live, we were afraid that this 3rd demon inside of her lungs might be too much to overcome with no treatment. She went to a Hospice house on Tuesday, March 3rd. before passing away April 11th.

She told the world in 2002 that she was not going until God said it was her time to go, refused any treatment of a new set of lungs. Life expectancy was 1-3 years at the time and has since gone up to an average of 3 - 5 years now. She has lived with the IPF for 16+years and from what we were told last week she had exceeded the longest survival case with IPF. She was just a tough patient to bring down according to the doctors exceeding the longest active case of IPF by 4+years.

From a dreaded 18-19 months to live to 16+years, she was able to see all 10 grand kids born, held them, had birthdays plus having several Christmas's with them. This past Christmas was the toughest one on her, knowing it would be her last. The cancer caused the IPF in remission to accelerate and all in all it was too much for to over come.

Each time the doctors mentioned how much longer she might be here on earth, she defied the odds and kept on living. Even on Tuesday this last week, the doctors called to tell us at the motel to get there,sooner than later, expecting death at any moment, she held onto living until Weds. at 12:40PM. She obviously didn't want to leave us, but I guess she felt the need to prove the doctors wrong 1 more time of her expected life's time frame.

Rest In Peace Baby, no more sickness and no more pain, Rev.21.4

To the many planet members who where so generous with your gifts and contributions back in 2002, Again, Thank You. Your gratitude and love was not only appreciative, it was blessed by our Lord and Savior above!

If you are one that belief in the power of prayers, please pray for the comfort of the family, many little hearts are in need of them.

Thanks!

"Behind every good man, is an even better woman"

My Brother Roy, the gentle giant. I will never forget meeting you at 37Forever banquet almost two decades ago. Glad to still call you friend after all these years.

I am so sorry for your loss, and I know the hole in your heart must be massive. I pray that God will be with you and your family, and help ease the pain, and comfort this giant void in your life. I'm thankful that Cassie was such a fighter, and was able to spend time with her children and grandchildren. I can only imagine the pain and suffering they are enduring.

Major kudos to you for handling this with so much grace, allowing your wife to pass with such class and dignity. I know you are heartbroken. Please try to find solace knowing that she is with the Lord now and no longer in pain. If you need someone to talk to, or just bend an ear, please don't hesitate to reach out.

You take care my brother. Be strong for those lil ones. My family will pray for yours.

Wow Roy,

I'm so sorry bud. I just lost a long time friend and it happened right in front of me. Shook me the hell up for a couple weeks. I can't imagine what it would be like losing a wife.

Hang in there and shoot me a PM if you need to shoot the shit or if there's anything else I can do.
