Today, March 13, 2019, is a bittersweet day for me. If my husband Tim Fisher were alive, he would have turned 70 years old today. This would have meant a lot to him, since the males in his family didn’t survive into their sixties.
Tim died at the age of 56, fifteen years after being diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor. As most of you who know our story know, Tim actually didn’t die as a result of the tumor itself. He died because of complications from the treatments he endured.
My website, HonestMedicine.com, and my two books, “Honest Medicine” and “The Power of Honest Medicine,” are all dedicated to Tim. He is the man who turned me into a patient advocate dedicated to helping others.
On Tim’s 70th birthday, I want to share my tribute to him, written in 2007, on the 2nd anniversary of his death. I think it tells, better than almost anything else I have written, why this man was the love of my life—why he was such an inspiration to me, and why he will always remain my inspiration.
Here it is: https://www.honestmedicine.com/2007/11/timothy-mark-fi.html
I wish I could say, “Happy Birthday, Tim!” today. But this will have to do. Thanks for reading.
I have also lost a spouse due to misdiagnosis of liver cancer.She was 45 and suffered for a year before they took her seriously and performed a biopsy on her liver which was positive.
