Robert-

I think we all have the same problem!! When you hear the word cancer it sends everyone into a tailspin. The fear is pretty hard to overcome. This is when it really helps to have a support group, a prayer group, even a group of people you've never met but have traveled the same road you are on! It's tough and it sucks. I'm 20 months from treatment and let me tell you the fear does slowly diminish with every day!! When you see those statistics remember that new treatments come every day and most of those stats are very old! So stay positive and when it gets rough we'll give you a pep talk! Many prayers are headed your way!!! - Kris
