Thanks Wendy, Its posts from people like yourself that helps continue and instill hope in us all. If we didn't have hope what would we have. Im taking that firm stand that Im going to raise my kids up and beat this thing or the next best thing to beating it. The drug manufacturers, govenment, health care makes so much money of these drugs and treatments. It just infuriates me, that someone has to do without because of money. When in the greater scheme of things money is the least important. Health, Happiness, Family and Friends! I did my 5th chemo today, not feeling too bad just a little tired. One more to go ! Yes!
All the best
