Sometimes the outlook can look like nothing is possible but people can overcome things and prosper. Im speaking from experience. When I was diagnosed with my third round I almost quit and let nature take its course. By now I would have been long gone. Between Brian Hill telling me there 3 time OC survivors really did exist, not many but there were a few out there and the members of this forum begging me not to give up before I even tried, they convinced me to keep going. Now, I personally know of several other 3 timers now who have been cancer free for many years. Anything is possible.
Wishing both you and your husband the strength to fight and win.
