Chelee...thank you for this...

wonderful post. The sisters who are "long time surviors" (love that title) are so generous with sharing their treatments, trials and knowledge, even while they are not feeling their best, offering options to others while they are fighting so hard. It is a gift of pure love and courage. Yes many come and go on the board, or only touch base when they have a question to follow up. It reminds me of a strong tree with powerful roots. Those who touch base or come and go are like the seasonal leaves that grow on a tree. Then there are the branches that grow from the strong tree.
Our long time surviors are our strong tree. God Bless each and everyone of you.

With Gratitude,
Jean
