We will be in treatment too Friday, Ed will be getting off the daily Tamoxifen and start with Faslodex instead. Right now the Magace is helping his 'wasting' problem with the weight. While we are sitting in the comfortable Lazy Boy chairs I will be thinking of you during treatment. I figure that if you, or hubby and I get scared we'll get over it, we adjust well (LOL). After all, is there anything more scary than cancer?? Just so you know there are programs you can attend where they focus on cancer patients AFTER ALL TREATMENT HAS ENDED!!!! I am keeping you close to heart and so happy to hear that you could never leave. Ed asked if I would stay if he earned his Angel Wings, he almost made me promise that I would not go. With my mom discovering her breast cancer and me having some breast health issues myself it does not look like I would want to leave. Knowledge is power. So I leave you for now My Dear Friend and thank you for providing me with an honest answer. These thoughts flow in and out of my mind, especially when there was a time Ed was almost into remission (tumor marker sensitive and almost normal...uggh..what happened??). What a warrior you are kid, thanks for leading the way. And you too owe us a dance with NED, we will see you there!! Kudos>>Believe51
