I will miss him deeply.
For those of you who do not know...
Garth had a throat cancer that was caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, the proper name for the common cold sore that 40% of all people have. Unfortunately, the virus sometimes brings on a particularly unusual throat cancer that few have ever heard of before. That is because it is so rare that only 300 people in the United States have it at any one time. Treatment should consist of aggressive chemotherapy, combined with radiation, but in Garth's case, it was a matter of too little treatment, too late.
He was my friend.
I'll be thinking about Uschi and Saski. I hope they are doing ok.
