A reader writes: As the daughter of the woman whose letter appears in your post Keeping the Secret of A Terminal Prognosis: Finding the Courage to Tell Those You Love, I wanted you to know that just four months after she wrote those words to you, my beautiful mother died in her sleep of heart failure. My father woke up in the morning and found her gone.
She left us all letters, and in mine she left a link to your online forum, along with her log in and password. She wanted us to read all that she had written.
I want to let you and your readers know what she was like.
