So happy for you that in the midst of a very busy treatment day you got to break for lunch with friends and be serenaded by nurses. Those are the gifts to cherish.
Keep the faith.

Re: Pam P is our Birthday Girl!!

Dear Pam,
Happy belated birthday. I'm sorry you had to have chemo and radiation on your birthday (once I also had chemo on my birthday), but I'm glad you could spend some time with your friends.
God bless you.
Love,
KarlaV.
