Re: My wifes fight- long

Catalina, I offer my sympathy to you and yours and thank you for sharing with us on the board. I marvel that your wife was able to continue to work while in treatment and am glad that you both enjoyed some wonderful trips. A nurse once told me at the beginning of my diagnosis...breast cancer is very unpredictable...a simple statement that has a lot of truth to it. Sincerely, Cathy
