Karen,

You are in my thoughts and prayers. You are strong and smart. You are a survivor. You have proven it time and time again. You will choose the right path. The path that will allow you a very long life.

I don't know if it will help you or not, but every time I start to get "crazy", I say out loud "Thank you God for restoring my body to PERFECT health!" I smile when I say it. I "feel" perfect when I say it. Then "feel" the feeling when the doctors tell me I am in perfect health. I have it written on the bathroom mirror. I have written it on my hand...in sharpie... when I'm too stressed to remember what to do. Sometimes I just have to say it over and over again until I can breathe.

My friends and family are used to hearing me say it, but I do get some funny looks in public sometimes...
