so sorry Bev

Of course it affects us all to hear your sad news--especially those who got involved and tried to help.
It is clear what a good friend you are/have been to her by your having reached out so far to help.
May you find peace and remember how you two were brought together...fighting breast cancer. I am sure she would have expected you to carry on the fight without her.
As we all know, there are many ways to do that.
God bless!

Thanks all. I guess it's a little bit of survivor's guilt mixed with survivor's fear and survivor's sad. Thanks again L for the research. All we can do is keep fighting. I'm confident we will find a cure, just worried about when. Take care, BB
