Lisa,

I'm sorry this has happened to you. I know exactly how you feel, alone. My family was so in denial it was just another day to them. I remember telling my Mom (87) I have cancer the only thing she said to me through it all, who told you that? All our phone calls were about her and her ailments. Two of my friends were there for me through it all. You may think your friends aren't there for you, if you asked one to help you out I'm sure they would.

Do what you have to do to live, never give up. How do think your parents would feel if you gave up, not good they already lost one child they don't want to lose you. So far I've had cancer once, but who knows what tomorrow will bring. If it came back I'd probably feel the same as you until I got my senses back. Yes, I'd vent, rant like a mad woman then I'd pick up the pieces and move on.

Keep us posted we're pulling for you.

Connie
