Anne, so glad to read that the light at the end of the tunnel is in view. Remember that the first weeks after the end of RT will be just as bad as what went before. For me they were even worse. I don't say this to scare you but to prepare you. And of course take it with a grain of salt because we're all different. It sounds to me as though you both have the right attitude!

But then it'll be Over. Capital O.

As for wondering what's next... that's normal and we all do it. I went into treatment with the sure knowledge that this thing wouldn't kill me. I trusted my doctors and myself, and I was right.

Reading all your posts I feel exactly the same way about Gordon. Keep us posted.

Courage!

D the 2nd
