Re: CURED as of June 1st!!

Denise--I am glad you smiley icon shows that you are laughing about this. That's better than crying if it is only partly true that laughing is sometimes the best medicine. Although there is nothing funny about what you have endured with your cancer, I believe your sense of humor can only be a good thing for you.

As and aside to your story, it reminds me of the time when an insurance employee sent me an explanation of benefits letter denying coverage for a service I had received for my b.c. Their explanation was that the service was not appropriate for my "gender". When I called them on it, they apologized for not knowing men get breast cancer too.--bird
