hi Kearnan,
many women on this board are wondering how you are doing? myself included.
you are missed by many. and of course we care♥️. are you still managing at home? hoping your pain is being somewhat controlled by your pain management doctor that you like.
I/we will be looking forward to hearing from you.
thinking of you and sending love💛

Aloha Kearnan. Sending you love and light. Hope to hear from you soon.
Does anyone remember the name of the hospice place that she planned to go to?
hi. I found this in a previous post by kearnan....I copied and will paste here:
My palliative care doctor and the NYLAG lawyer both told me I would probably be sent to Calvary in the Bronx. (I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE BRONX). They have one in Brooklyn but my palliative care doc (who was in hospice for 10 years before coming to the cancer center) said it only has 25 beds and is impossible to get into so I would be shipped to the Bronx. It won't matter bc nobody will be coming to visit anyway and yet it bothers me bc I do not want to go to the Bronx. Ridiculous I know but my thinking is all out of whack.
I know kearnan lived in Brooklyn. so the above is the only hospice facility that she mentioned. obviously don't know where she is at present but perhaps at this Calvary in the Bronx? or maybe she did get into the one in Brooklyn?
hope this information is helpful.....

in addition, she mentioned in another post that there were also one or two hospice facilites....also part of this 'Calvary' ......in Staten Island (as well as the one in the Bronx and the one in Brooklyn)
Do we have any idea what her real name is? I can try to call them. I have friends who have been in the one in the Bronx and their families raved about it.
hi again Carol. well I do know her first name is Ann(e) Marie. her last name is either Kearnan or Kearns....not sure? maybe others know??
carole
Did her profile disappear? Does anyone know her real name?
her profile is still here....it has not disappeared. her name is either Ann Marie Kearnan or Ann Marie Kearns and she is 62.
Just thinking about her - any word?
unfortunately no. not that I am aware of. 😔
Thinking of her, also.
She’s gone sadly. I think that her last posts were March 2023 and she described how her body was looking and basically it was as her oncologist described it would be at the end. 😪 Sadly as she didn’t have family to arrange an obit here there wasn’t any closure for her online friends.
Thank you, Kerry; uggh. Hope you are feeling good.
I am going ok thanks. I reread some of Kearnan’s posts and I found it really sad how her last few months were lived. I find it difficult when people we’ve shared our thoughts and feelings with just disappear and I’ve actually written a couple of obits when I have been able to and posted them. It’s not always possible to do that and I know it’s hard for the loved ones who are left behind to come to a space they probably want to forget about but I appreciate everyone who does share their memories with us. Even though Kearnan suffered disappointment with the friends she did have, I’m sure that she gained a lot of comfort from the people here who cared about her and think of her still.
Most of us are all scared shitless!
