Re: Whack-a-mole next...

Flori, I am so sorry to hear this. But doctors are wrong all the time. As they say, doctors are only practicing. And also, you know what they call the medical student to finishes last in their class? Doctor! So, there's always hope and hopefully the treatments you've been getting have been kicking the disease in its backside. As I said before, we understand that you have more pressing things going on right now and updating us here isn't your main concern but we do care and we hope you'll let us know what you can when you're up to it. As Laurel said, we've got your back and we're here for you. Hugs

Re: Whack-a-mole next...

I do not believe doctors when they give timelines. You are a strong warrior and I know you can defy the odds! All my love and prayers for you Flori - prove them wrong!

God Bless,

Jessica
