Bob...
hands down, the person you need to talk to is Tom who unfortunately just lost his mother (not to breast cancer) who was 80 something years old. His/her story sounds VERY similar to yours and I am SURE he would be happy to help you. Also, Triciak is another one. She is 70 something and had actual heart problems when she was dx w/ breast cancer. I have posted both of their information so you can either email or private message them or read their posts. Take care and God bless.
