Les Coleman

Leslie Coleman fought a seven year battle against esophageal cancer during which he received 100 chemotherapy treatments. He was a frequent contributor to a list serv that I subscribe to. He always contributed in an open, informative and upbeat way that helped many other patients in their battle. Les was kind enough to reply directly to me in February when I asked him about the chemo agents he had received over the years. On April 29th Les sent his last message to the list serv informing everyone that he was in a lot of pain and entering hospice. Les died on Thursday. It's strange that you can feel so close to someone you've never met but I know a lot of people feel that way about Les, myself included. Rest in peace Les. -----------------------------------
