Chris,

It's great that you have all these people on board as your caregiver. The caregiver is an extremely important role in your battle against this disease, from diagnosis to full recovery. I most strongly recommend your family join this forum as it will glean a lot of information from patients, survivors and caregivers alike. Ask questions. I am a caregiver "newbie" to this forum and believe me, there is valuable info to be had. I've been searching the web, there are blogs and such but this site is in real time 24/7. I'm glad to have found it.

Linda
