I know you will see my update on Mama. I wanted to thank you for your tips. I can see how doing the book could help you too. Just like this site. I started posting to try to find out info to help Mama, but this site and the people on it are helping me. I sat with Mama today while she was taking the chemo. We talked to some really nice people. I guess I was expecting to see some really sick people but I am happy to say all the people we talked to looked like normal healthy people. I would never have known they were fighting cancer. I have a lot of admiration for my Mom and others fighting this. I am not sure I would have the guts they do. You know I am still praying for us all and I know you and your husband are too. Thanks for being a friend.  Pat

After reading your letter it made me think of the first time I went and sat with my husband while he did his first treatment.  We were dreading going in there just as I'm sure everyone does, but once we got in there it was ok.  Don't get me wrong it really sucked being there, but it wasn't the horrible scene I thought it would be.  I'm glad your Mom finally got started, what a relief.  I hope she is handling it ok.  Keep in touch and we all must keep praying for each other.
