    Hi everyone. This as an update on one of our Off-Topic moderators Corrin (aka Lucy).

    Some of us have been personally following Lucy's journey for a while, but for those unaware, she went public with her diagnosis of Stage IV Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in October 2022. This came as a massive shock to everyone, including us as her friends.

    After a difficult initial battle against her tumor, it seemed like it had finally gone away in early 2023 following multiple rounds of chemotherapy. We were overjoyed to know she could finally start her road to recovery. Unfortunately, the cancer ended up relapsing at the end of 2023, and in the year to follow things regressed further. As a result it has been an incredibly difficult and painful few years for Lucy, I can only imagine how much of a struggle everything was.

    A couple of days ago, Lucy had posted an update which unfortunately contained the dreadful news we hoped we would never have to hear.

    Following this, it is with a very heavy heart that I announce that Lucy passed away on December 1st at 3:45pm AST.

    This is new territory for all of us here at PC, and I imagine we are all going to be trying to process the information in different ways. Lucy always had the best interests of anyone at heart, and would always make sure to be a voice for anyone here that needed it here at PC. She was a great moderator and an even greater friend to many, who has been so unfairly snatched away from this world way too soon.

    Please keep her family and friends in your thoughts as they process this devastating news. We also ask you give her loved ones privacy and avoid messaging anyone for further details.

    Feel free to use this thread to grieve, share any memories or just share some kind words. Please take care of yourselves and look out for each other whilst we all try to process what has happened.

    From everyone here at PokéCommunity, thank you so much for being with us Lucy, may you rest in peace.
     
    My heart dropped upon seeing this thread despite already knowing about this.

    She was a wonderful presence to have around the forum and I appreciate the care and involvement she showed to this section.

    On a more personal note, my deepest condolences to her and my thoughts go out to her and her loved ones. It was clear she had a powerful and admirable will to fight through this and I'm sorry that her life was cut short. I'm sorry to anybody else who has to suffer through the cruelty of cancer.

    I hope she rests easy.
     
    Did not know her too much either, but she seemed like a really amazing person that the world needs more of.. she may have lost to cancer, but she will never be lost from out memories, rest in peace corrin, we all loved you very much. and to those really hurt by this, best wishes for you too.
     
    I sadly did not know her well, but I know she was well loved by her friends here. I'm so sorry for those of you who've lost her... And I hope she rests in peace.
     
    I met Lucy around 2012/2013 on a different forum some people may know of as Ever Grande City, and while I didn't talk to her a whole lot, and only did so here and there, I still remember when she told me how social I was despite being autistic/having Asperger's and admiring me for that.

    She always had a rather difficult sounding life, talking about how everyone hated her and stuff, and I always felt kind of bad for her in that regard. The world wasn't kind to her at all.

    I was hoping she'd beat cancer, and was happy to hear she did for some time, and was saddened upon hearing it relapsed.

    The world wasn't kind to her, I hope she rests in peace and if she is ever reborn her next life is better for her.
     
    Lucy was a sweet person to have around and she was so easy-going. She poured her heart and soul into this community not just as a moderator, but within other areas of our staff as well. It devastates me to know that cancer took the life of another person close to me. May you rest in peace, dear <3
     
    I want to express my thanks for knowing her as much as I could around the site and give my sympathies for everyone involved.
     
    i knew lucy more from twitter than here, as i think we only served on staff at the same time for a brief period. while we weren't close, we did interact somewhat regularly on twitter and i would see her health updates. i was overjoyed when she initially had gone into remission and my heart broke seeing the cancer come back. cancer is so nasty, it truly is. and she was so young. it's just awful. i saw the update from one of her friends on twitter and my heart just sank. it's awful, just awful. i can't find the words. i just hope she found peace in her final moments and that she went peacefully. rest well, lucy.
     
    I didn't know Lucy well but I could tell through her interactions and conversations with her friends that she was a great person who was loved and cherished. I am glad she found enough comfort in PokéCommunity to continue hanging out with us until the end. That any of us could have been a source of happiness or a distraction throughout her illness is an honour. It is not fair that someone so young should have to deal with any of this and leave us so early and I hope wherever she is now she can rest easy.
     
    Her beating cancer sounded a little bit too good to be true in retrospect. I didn't know her too well. But I do remember that we had some differences in the past in part because even now I'm still working on my empathy stuff. It's a shame because I really hoped we could be friends. At least she hopefully doesn't have to suffer, anymore. :(
     
    i not know Corrin tho i still shed tear NO ONE deserves life to get cut short 'cause of illness especially cancer

    i wish Corrin enjoyed her life especially last few months may she rest in peace and my deepest condolences to her friends + family.

    And im sorry to hear you loose more then 1 person to cancer i admire your strength.
     
    I want to say something but I honestly don't know what to say.
    I was so happy for her when it went into remission and devastated to hear that it had come back.
    Seeing the title of this thread I knew what it would say inside.
    This is just horrible to hear.
    I really admired her strength throughout the whole process, I wish I'd told her that.
    See you, @Corrin
     

    I thought I would play a song for Lucy, the kind of music that I know she liked, and picture her rocking out to this or Dio, Rammstein, Metallica or Alanis Morissette, unleashing her artistic abilities and designing another beautiful banner in an alternate universe. It could be making a job-dropping flair or helping the development team, she brought creative fire and her loss is a loss for our forum.

    She was interested in learning and talking about many things, whether it was staff discussion or a conversation about current or past world events, she came from a place of caring, and I'm going to miss hearing her voice. Even when some topics got her fired up I also saw a lot of openness in her too to hear perspectives different from her own that I think made for some thoughtful dialgues and remember her as a really down-to-earth, reflective person that I'm glad i knew.

    She wasn't just the talented teammate I worked with here in off-topic for over 4 years, but a good friend when you got to know her, reliable, honest and helpful. If she heard about things that I was going through, she would be there to comfort me and give me advice, even though she herself was sick. That's the kind of empathetic and constructive person she was. Despite all the junk that life through at her she kept working hard and fighting, and I admire her inner strength, passion and goodness. You will always be my hero.

    I do not know Lucy. From the love being shown here it's easy to see how incredible of a fighter and kind of a soul she was. I wish I had joined at an earlier point in my life so I could have the opportunity of knowing her.

    For fighting for so long against this curse called cancer, you proved one thing: You were the very best, like no one ever was.

    May you rest in peace Lucy.
     
    Even if I have no connection to this person or any relatives or close circles, I shall pray that her soul may find rest.
    That shall be everything I shall say regarding this matter. I shall give you all the time to grieve.
