A former Wells Fargo colleague of mine, Linda, is in the hospital and needs some extra love.
A month ago she went to have knee replacement surgery, which was successful. However, a couple of days later due to unusual sleepiness and headaches, a CT scan revealed a baseball size brain tumor. On Jan 24th the tumor was removed during an 8 hour surgery. The tumor was found to be a malignant meningioma. In the time since that surgery, Linda has experienced seizures leading to a irreversible stroke. Linda’s family has now shifted the focus to palliative care, keeping her comfortable and pain free.
I only worked with Linda for 18 months – we both were part of a team of ~10 contractors hired at the same time by the same contracting firm, to help in a certain area at WF. No matter that it was only 18 months working together, we became very close during that time, with her as a “mom” figure – always wanting to give me “advice”. To this day, I can still remember her laugh and how down to earth she was.
My thoughts are of you, Linda this day and for the past month, and you will always be in them, each day.
