Default [Dixonary] OT: More bad news

I've just received the sad word that Marijke van Gans died today.

Marijke had not been feeling well and, knowing that I'm in--as she put
it--"the medical writing trade," she'd been sending along reports on her
various symptoms she'd been experiencing over the past few weeks along with
the conflicting diagnoses she'd been receiving from assorted GPs and
consultants. When I last heard from her, exactly two weeks ago,
corticosteroids had her feeling much better while she awaited diagnosis,
which apparently included consideration of a possible malignancy.

Now, suddenly, she's gone.

The news came from a close friend of hers who has access to Marijke's
computer and who had evidently been asked, should such an event occur, to
spread the word to significant others. Those included the Dixonary group.

The friend's name is Hannie van Belle, and she can be reached at Marijke's
address (gmarijke (AT) gmail (DOT) com).
