Congratulations, Sandy! Time does fly. There aren't many good things about having BC or any illness, but we do learn to appreciate each other and life more. May you have 33 more anniversaries! Hugs, Tricia

Congratulations Sandy! October will bring my 25th anniversary, and I can't wait. I know that I would not have made it through the first chemo that I took without him by my side.
