This is sad. And the way she ended up getting treated by Trump and Republicans was also sad.

Oh my goodness, that's terrible.

So many strange and aggressive cancers....

Cancer is one tough nut to crack.

How many generations of people have thought, after a loved one dies of cancer that maybe it will be cured in my lifetime?

This is very sad, far too young and we need people like her in leadership positions.

Brain cancer. That explains why she was a Republican.

Died at 49?
