Thank you, Susan, for the good story and encouraging words. As a caregiver also, it has been a long, hard, road. Some of the "good" that came out of our situation is a friend who took off work every Monday for 7 weeks to sit with Dan and I during his chemo/rad. It was a full day in the hospital and it meant so much to have a friend go thru it with us. Also, on my daily prayer list are some of the nicest people that we met who were also battling some form of cancer along with many names from this board. It is good to know that there are many loving, caring people still out there. I really appreciate your post.

Take care,
Debbie
