Thank you very much!!

Thank you for remembering my birthday the big 37!! When I was dx'd at 30 and then liver mets at 33 I didn't think I would still be here!!!
I am so sad about the recent losses...which makes us all too well aware that no one is guaranteed anything...Except of course the peace that passes all understanding when we need it!!
Thanks again..
