Kevin and Sue:

we are wishing you the best of luck. Stressful times, for sure. My wife and I have been on this road for 3 years and while it has been difficult it has also brought us closer together. Like you, I am the one doing the prowling through the internet and other resources. This gives me a role as advocate and simplifies things for Sarah, if only slightly. It works for us. I recommend the book Breast Cancer Husband by Marc Silver, it is very amusing and completely distinct in its perspective from the spouse/partner point of view.
