lol David you men drive us women crazy. I think Steve has a share in the word stubborn with you David. In fact I think he actually invented it. He would have to be the most stubborn man I have ever, ever met. Luckily for him I love him.

Yes Karen, I do see many similarities between Alex and Steve. Got to feel sorry for you there because I know what you are up against. Steve's treatment was extremely hard work, for both of us, but so worth it when we got to the end. I think most of Steve's issue was he had no control. So he tried to control the little things like eating and doing his oral care etc. Didn't matter how much it would hurt him in the end, I think in some way just by being able to say no I don't want to, it helped him to feel better about the whole situation. Who knows. All I can say Men, I'll never figure them out.
