Tara, thank you for your kind words. I know when I went through all the treatment and diets, and surgeries, and everything, I felt so alone, and scared. I just want to help anyone I can get through it. I joined this group after my RAI, I just wish I would have found it in the beginning. I reply to as many questions as I can in hopes to make someone elses journey not as scarey as mine. Some days I think I need to stop and move past this stage in my life, but I am not ready yet. I still need support. My husband is great, but as you all know, noone can really understand until you haave been there. Chins up gals, it does get better. Always here for you. Skylog
Maybe that was the "reason" (for lack of a better word) that we have had this experience....to help others. Your positive comments have certainly helped me. We all have much in common here on the board. I started answering a lot of posts, too, because I know how much I have appreciated an experience or helpful comments from someone who knows first-hand what I am going through. It's a journey I hope I don't have to take again, but I know where to turn now if I do have to do it all again. Tara
