Like you, I thought the same thing--that cancer was on the rise--especially amongst women. The truth, it seems is that because of better screening and publicity, more people are being diagnosed and those diagnoses are being made at earlier stages. I'm hoping that's true for Dana.

I once had a long-time oncology nurse tell me that she truly believed that only special people got cancer. She looked at it as a wake up call from God to start doing the things we all need to be doing to reach our true potential--physical, emotional, and spiritual. I've found much the same thing with people I've met who had cancer. I certainly expect this is true with Dana. She certainly seems like a very special person to me--at least as much as one can get a sense of someone through the filter of the media.
