Thank you all for your kind words and prayers. Whenever you hear the words "inoperable" you try to steel yourself and prepare for the day. But no matter how prepared you believe you are, you're not. It still hits you, hits you hard and knocks you on your ass.

Thank you all for your support over the last year. The information you all share from personal experiences is invaluable. I respect each and every survivor and caregiver who fights this horrific disease every hour of every day.

Love and prayers to all.

Linda
