Not sure what to say?

Kathy, I never met you, but by writing of your experiences, you helped me. Thank you for helping me and the rest of us who have been forced to deal with breast cancer. God bless you.

I never met you but you were an inspiration to not just me but everyone on the BC.org boards. Your January posts will be missed by so many. I was so shocked and saddened to hear of your passing just yesterday. My prayers for your family and friends. Thank you for sharing your life with us. <3

So profoundly saddened by news of Kathy's passing. I will never forget her generosity, advice and support during my own struggle with cancer. Her spirit and singular talent will be missed. Rock the stars, Kathy.

As a frequent traveler to Inida I found her book Dreaming in Hindi to be just wonderful and inspirational. I gave it to several friends who also love India. My condolences to the family. An admiring fan.

Devastated to discover this news today. In our 20s we were good friends and lost touch ages ago. We had fun, Kathy. You were brave. And you wrote a searing book. I should have told you. But others did.

Rest in peace, dear Kathy. I will miss you.

Kathy was a wonderful mentor and friend. Always kind, gentle, and courageous. I am better for having known her. I will miss her.

Very sad news. Kathy was always a delight and an inspiration, as a writer and as a friend.
