There is a group of people who knew Barbara very well and had shared some of the trials she had been through over the past couple of years. She will be missed by this wonderful group of friends who are, at times, as close as family though rarely, if ever, meet face to face. That group was supportative of her when she held held Steve's hand and worked long hours into sleepless nights as his caregiver. That same select group were here with her when it was announced that Barb had joined the ranks of membership as a patient.
She took up the battle of her own and became a brave Warrior, one of our Heros
She was a first for our group...We called her and Steve our BT Twins as this was the first time we had a Husband and Wife that were BOTH patients.
