Re: I hope I did the right thing...this is long!
Ceesun,
I think you did the right thing. I bet we can all remember going through chemo and feeling so alone and isolated. When I was going through chemo, I had a women sit down beside me in the waiting room and she just starting talking to me. She said, 15 years ago, I was in your shoes. She told me about how she had gone through chemo, radiation, surgery, etc and she was still standing. Her words comforted me so much. As far as giving false hope, something will take us all in the end.
I bet your words gave that women more hope, encouragement and comfort than you can imagine.
Pam
