Thank you Flori and Steph, both post very true and spiritural. I needed to read those today as I am scheduled for yet another ct scan for a problem no one seems to be able to figure out. This disease is such a roller coaster ride. I remember when my mother had symptoms that the docs couldn't figure out, her cancer had come back with a vengence. It saddens me so when we lose a dear her2 sister. Always in the back of my mind, am I next. It is so hard to move past those feelings.
Please forgive the negativity, I am having a bad day.
