Hospice ...and a Sad Update

Damn ...

I thought about Kali out of the blue while I was at work today, and that made me feel like I wasn't going to hear anything good.

I see I was right.

So, so, very sorry to be reading this and be writing this. I had so very much hoped it would turn out different. My condolences to the family and to her friends. I know she will be missed.

Now, ... I need some moments to myself.

RiP Kali. Cancer sucks.

I am so truly sorry for the loss that all are sharing who loved her and will remember her name.
We aren't just words on a screen or an avatar in a box, are we?
There are some amazing people who touch others, inspire others and make a big impact, in the off line world and the on line world that we have come to gather in.
Times like these can make us reflect, not only on our own mortality but, on what we wish to be remembered for.
I am sure that her friends, family and loved ones will remember her in the flesh and we were blessed to have a glimpse of the Kali that was (for some of us) without a face, without touch but always with passion and deep convictions.
I am honored to have been able to see a different point of view from her and read the powerful words that made me just. stop. and think.
Peace and healing to her family and thank you Augustus for the sad update. Be at peace.

Such sad news!

RIP, dear Kali....

RIP Kali.
Your flame burned brightly here and you will be greatly missed.

How heartbreaking.

Fly free, Kali, and may you find what your heart truly desires.

Edit: Augustus Masonicus mentioned the Jimmy Fund in his announcement about Kali's death. I wasn't familiar with the Jimmy Fund, so I looked it up.

More about it here... you can donate as well if you like.

She was one of the good guys .
RIP Kali.

Kali will be truly missed.

Sending her loved ones she left behind my deepest sympathies and condolences.

Rest now, Kali, rest among the beauties of peacefulness you would wish for all.

Life And Death Are One - Kahlil Gibran

Life and death are one, even as the river and sea are one
In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond;
And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.
Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity...

Bless you Kali, for who you are, for the way you fought for your life, and the goodness and honesty you brought to this site.
Bless you.

Oh no , RIP Kali.

Its amazing how people you never met in person and didnt always see eye to eye still become part of your life. You will be missed Kali and best of luck in your journey.

Oh man, this tears me up.

ATS is missing one of its stars now, but the heavens have gained and so it is balanced.

Kali will genuinely be missed.

You were the one who always aggravated me, and also made me give a triple fistpump to the sky, Kali. I wish I'd have known you better. I think you always gave better than you got. I think you liked it that way. I will miss you and your frankness. I guess now you know the secrets. All of them.

I still have a few jokes to tell you. Maybe later, when you aren't watching.

She was a worthy foe.

Thank you Kali, for everything. Your wisdom. Your tenacity. Your love and compassion. Your light. Your strength.

I am going to miss you terribly. We all are I think.

Rest in peace, Kali.

To her family reading this, celebrate her life.

Sad....my prayers and condolences.

Rest in peace Kali!

Cancer sux, RIP Kali.

Darling Kali. I'm so sorry. You were one of the best of us, and a new adventure awaits you. Be you, and you will be fine.
