MareJo, I completely understand your feelings. Sometimes I sit here at the computer reading others posts with tears in my eyes. Especially the younger ones. None of this cancer stuff makes sense. Why some are Stage I and get to stage IV very quickly and keep battling it out and others who are stage IV and keep on going strong. I never had my faith waver during my own cancer battle, but when my 35 year old son-in-law was diagnosised with malignant melanoma which he has mets to lymph nodes, I started to lose my faith and get angry. It just makes no sense to me. But alas tomorrow is another day.
