Vicki,
Great article. I think the writer did a good job of conveying the stories with feeling and reality. I agree the internet, especially when used wisely, is wonderful. I know it was helpful to me during chemo. I loved being able to be in contact with my friends when I was too tired to talk to them individually on the phone. I still my local friends about my Her2 Site friends.

Thanks for sharing the article, Catherine
