Re: Grieving already
Dear Biddy,
First of all...Kelly is extremely lucky to have a sister that loves her so much. I was fortunate to have 2 sisters that I knew I could count on for anything I needed. That was huge and I am sure you are up to it.
When I was diagnosed my oldest sister came to visit because she wanted to have some time when we could have fun, she was afraid that I would be bedridden and then die.
Well....here it is 3+ years later and through the entire process I've lived a very full life. (ok....interrupted at times which is frustrating) The key is, by coming to this site I saw that there were women who were active, full of hope and were incredibly knowledgeable. Please encourage your sister to come to the site.
I am glad that you found us and are welcome to ask questions, vent, admit in open how frightened you are because we all understand.
Here is to many more years with your sister!!!!
