Hi Maureen,

I really have no more to add than what this wonderful group of women already shared with you. Yes, we have all been their....and coming here to share was just the right thing to do. ONLY those of us who have been their can truly understand.

I went through what you are going through around the same time after my diagnosis. I remember it being a rough, scary, constant worrisome time for me. I thought I had a recurrence on a daily basis. That may strike you as funny reading this but TRUST ME when I tell you there was nothing funny about it at the time.

I'm happy to read that you are seeing a counselor. That was a smart move and I'm sure that will help immensely. Have you thought of joining a local breast cancer support group in your area?

Maureen I ask God to surround you with His peace and thank Him for a dear "sister" like you. It was good you felt led to share your heart with us here. I am sure you will find some comfort and understanding from all the women shared with you.

Surrounding you with prayer Maureen,

Mary Jo
