The psychologist at the cancer center said to me "when you get cancer you learn who your friends are". And she was right. A few people dropped off the face of the earth. But more heartwarming was to find some suprising support from unexpected sources. More "casual" friends who really stepped up and became great sources of encouragement. Human nature sure is interesting!
