Re: Its Back

Ariana,
I am trying to think of something nice and inspiring to say, but all I want to do is scream. My heart goes out to you, it is the news we never want to hear. My prayers will be for a quick and thorough response to treatment.

Re: Its Back

Adriana,

I'm so sorry. It is what we all fear. However, there are lots of women who do very well for many, many, years. You can be one of them.

Yes, it may not be "curable" but is it treatable like many other chronic diseases. I will be sending positive healing thoughts your way. May you respond well to treatment and may your side effects be minimal.

Take care,
Brenda
