Re: 12 years since DX - stage IV - still NED - new problem
Steph,
I sooooooo hear you! While feeling privileged to be alive to live to grow old, I must say this growing old is a b*t#h! I am so sorry to hear you are gimping along, but hope you get relief very soon. Who was it who said that "growing old is not for the faint of heart"? Bette Davis?
Well whoever said it was spot on! Hang in there!
