Im so sorry to hear of Vicki's recurrance. Sounds like you make a wonderful couple. She is very lucky to have you by her side thru this. Poor Vicki has gone thru alot and has yet more to get thru. Be thankful that this time you know what to expect. Hope its easier for both of you. Recurrances arent easy at all. I had one 10 months after my intital diagnosis, only 7 months after finsihing radiation and chemo. One thing that helped me get thru it was I kept telling myself "Ive been thru much much worse and lived to tell about it". Its now a year later and Im so much better. Hoping the same is in store for Vicki. I will say lots of prayers for both of you.
