Maureen,

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend, Leah. And I hope that your back pain will prove nothing to be concerned about.

I see that you're in Dallas and so this may be too far away for you to consider, but there's a wonderful program in Southern California through a nonprofit organization called, "Healing Odyssey." Every few months they hold weekend retreats for women who have been through cancer. I went to one while I was going through chemo and the experience helped me cope with many of my fears. To learn more about Healing Odyssey, there is a video on their website.

Best wishes to you.

Idelle
