Chrisy,
You have my heart felt sympathy in the loss of someone who truly cared for you. This is an absolutely dreadful disease and all we can do is fight it the best we can. I lost a very good friend of mine over the Holiday. She was only 33 and had cervical cancer but by the time she went to the doctor she was already stage IV. It's always hard when we lose someone we care about to this disease. Again, you have my deepest sympathy.
