Thank you so much Andi for taking the time to share this with all of us! I appreciate the fact that you have lived 18 years past your stage 4 diagnosis, and you still take time to post to this forum. I always read with interest any ideas and strategies you may have for us. I hope that you will continue to stay in touch and continue to share. Thank you again for your time and interest!
