Hi Alice, i get it! It just knocks the wind out of you to hear this crappy news. We know! I was 34 when redxed with stage IV (humongous liver mets, some lung spots), single mom, 2 young girls. i am 37 have two jobs,volunteer at school, have my hair and with the team i have assembled, i am doing well. I also plan on doing well. you are obviously a strong and determined woman-this will make the difference. Esthers' posts, really helped to remind me about the chronic disease mindset. No, we don't want to have a chronic disease, but neither do we want to feel icky all the time. Quality of life IS possible. Plan a lot of fun things with your fabulous friends ALL the time. It makes a big difference. Keep us posted.
love, joy
