Trish

[andrew]

I'm sad to report that Trish, one of the first members of this site back in 2008 passed away on 5 March of Methotrexate-induced cancer. I was informed by her partner Gavin just yesterday as it was her birthday and she'd been sent a birthday message from the site.

Trish's profile is here: http://www.wegeners-granulomatosis.com/forum/members/trish.html

I remembered her profile picture as soon as I saw the email from Gavin. We lost another warrior. RIP.


If anyone would like to contact Gavin, just PM me and I'll send you the email address. He's working on raising awareness of WG especially around Methotrexate use so if anyone has any information or can offer assistance I'm sure he'd be grateful.

Thanks Andrew.
That is so sad :crying: Rest in peace Trish. May you now be pain free forever.

MTX induced cancer is a bit scary

Again, sad to read this. Would like Gavin to know thinking of him at this time of loss.

I too send my condolences, thoughts and prayers to her family. I never had the pleasure to meet Trish on this site, but her loss is still felt.

Trish last posted before my time on here. I'm very sad for the loss, for her family and friends and for us. It's a little scary, since I and many of us are on MTX. Thanks for letting us know, Andrew.

Sad to hear we lost someone else to this. I remember Trish,she hadn't been on here in awhile. My condolences go to Gavin and her family. I do not use mtx so I don't think I could offer any insight on the subject to him. Thanks for sharing this Andrew.

RIP TRISH

I didn't have the privilege of interacting with Trish. My deepest, heartfelt condolences to her family and friends. Wherever she is, she knows more than us...

Thanks, Andrew! I put a candle on the map.... I don't know how many candles we have now, but quite a few. If anyone knows of any I might be missing, please let me know. Trish was pretty young, too. Really sad....

This breaks my heart. I did not know or interact with Trish either, but I'm so sorry to hear this and my heart goes out to her loved ones. It's not fair. :crying::mad::crying::crying:. Rip Trish.

So young . . . so sad! RIP Trish and huge thanks to Gavin who, in the midst of his tragic loss, is continuing to raise awareness of WG, a condition that simply has no respect for decent human beings!!

R.I.P. Trish, my heart goes out to your family.
