Re: Haven't been on this board for nearly 3 years

Of course we remember you. So sorry you find yourself back here under the circumstances but we will help however we can I recall Kiris' independent streak and how trying it has been for you. Please don't say you are self-absorbed/complaining. You are reacting as anyone would. I can't advise about her behavior but I can tell you that things very often are not what they first seem to be in Cancerland. Every chronic cough is looked at with suspicion, as it should be. But then a scan lights up and conclusions can be jumped to. I won't go into all the details but I got caught up into this scenario and it resulted in unnecessary lung surgery. So I hope she is being treated conservatively and more benign things are being considered. In my case, the scans lit up due to old lung infections
As previously, hopefully she will bring you into the loop in her own good time. You raised one independent gal!! Meanwhile, try not to project too much. Just stay in the present and keep the faith!
