All the people involved in that day, those who love you and those who want to cure you. How touching of your doctor with the Disney cruise comment. The dedication of those behind the scenes is amazing. I am so thankful that your prayers were answered and my heart aches for those going through this as I type these words to you.

Everyone goes through extremely tough times in their lives, and of course mine would never compare to this, but I feel that this post has told me 'it is OK to be raw with your feelings'. 'it is OK to put your life out there, to tell people what you life is like to be human'. Thank you so much for sharing this part of you...you are a strong woman.

My husband, mother, and best friend all had cancer. Almost unbelievable that you had all women. But please tell us the rest of the story, you can't just leave it this way. How far along was it, did they get it all? Did you need any other kind of treatment? Deciding the treatment is SO hard, especially if they give you options. How are you now?Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.com
