Susan's devastated family said ‘she fought so hard to the end.’
Susan Jack, pictured with daughter Cassie Bonstrom, worried that her cancer and lung transplants made her vulnerable to Covid-19 shortly before she became infected with the virus and died after being diagnosed with colon cancer and having a double-lung transplant has died of Covid-19.
Speaking before Susan’s death, her daughter Cassie Bonstrom said: ‘You hear so much how everyone’s going to get it, or likely to get it, but my mom’s always known and she said before, a couple weeks ago, she said I’m a sitting duck.
Cassie said: ‘And they came out in full protective gear and whisked her away. And her wife, my stepmom, said goodbye and we sent her off.’
