Re: Tales from the Surgery Waiting Room
Aw Lee, you ROCK! The comfort you provided that husband as he begins their journey will probably pull him through some rough times.
I am so happy to hear that Colleen is now moving on to life "after" cancer. This experience changes us forever, but some of those changes are the best thing that could have happened - to me anyway.
Please pop in from time to time. You are family here.
Much love,
