Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 1 | Hi, I just wanted to say again, thank you to all of you that have helped me get through this horrible ordeal. My husband is now going into year 2. He is back to work after almost a year off. He is doing just great. He is thinner now and does not eat like he used to, but he tells me he is OK. What a relief? Stage 4 T4AN2B 7 weeks rad and 2 chemo. A big thank you for pulling me through it. By the way I am not sure why I could not get logged in under the name of Mommapez, so I registered again after several attempts. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 8,311 Senior Patient Advocate Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts) | | Senior Patient Advocate Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts)
