Happy Trails, Susan Mac
My friend Susan Mccallister cast aside the body that was no longer serving her a few days ago. Pancreatic cancer snatched her away at the tender age of 54.
Susan was an equine massage therapist who loved her horses. She liked to ride off into the woods and camp. She also loved to dance, to good old rock-n-roll by the likes of Delbert McClinton, Van Morrison, and her husband Kenny Ray’s band, Drop of a Hat. She had a tiara and sparkly shoes. She loved good wine, and her friends, and her dogs, and all animals big and small. She worked part-time in an animal hospital, and part-time in administration at a massage school.
Susan was in a lot of pain for most of the past year, pain that even strong drugs couldn’t take away, the kind of pain that doesn’t let you eat or get good quality sleep. She passed away peacefully at home surrounded by friends and family. She’ll be missed by us all.
Happy Trails, Susan Mac.

I’m sorry to hear about your friend dying of pancreatic cancer. I lost my older brother a few years ago to pancreatic cancer. Its a terrible sickness and its very painful. I’m about to graduate from massage therapy school in Tennessee and have read your book to help prepare for the NCE exam. Thanks for all your help and encouragement.
