Terrible situation. My heart and prayers go out to them, having just lost my wife to cancer 4 months ago.
Prayers for Tulsi and her husband!
From what I’ve read Bone Cancer is one of the most painful types...........
Just lost my husband to cancer. Sometimes the treatment is what kills a person.
Poor woman. I wish them peace.
I think she did a decent job, just by the lack of news in what she was doing.
Sheesh. Sorry to hear but I wish she didn’t resign. No one with an ounce of integrity will get confirmed to this role for the remainder of the Presidency. The Senate is already terrible. Should have said go do what you gotta do any get back asap. Assign a backup until you return.
Sad news. Family comes first.
Prayers for Tulsi and her husband.
Yep, My sister-in-law was in chemo and died from a stroke from the chemo...........
Lord have mercy and heal her husband, I pray in the mighty Name of Jesus!
Wasn’t bone cancer what took our wonderful Freeper Jeff Head?
I’m sorry to hear of your loss.
It sounds like you were there for him for as long as you could be.
That I do not know........😪
Prayers for both of them.
She’s our fighter, but, she will help her dear hubby fight, now.
God bless and keep them, both.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
God bless.
So sorry for your loss. 🙏
Hope, beyond dealing with family medical issues, she stays in the public arena.
Thank you. I am grief stricken and angry at the medical profession.
That’s too bad!
