Re: Should I quit my job?

Penny,

Life is short whether you have cancer or not. It seems to me if you can swing it financially, then time at home sowing into the lives of your children, helping them become strong, independent young people is a job worth doing 100%. The grind of cancer treatment wears thin after a time. If it were me, and the bills could be paid, I'd stop in a heartbeat. Good luck with your decision. Be at peace in whatever you do.
