Solitaire - please don't blame yourself. Cancer is cancer, it hits you or it doesn't. I too thought I was dealing with it alone until I found this forum. Like David and Cheryl I'm here to help you in any way I can so please feel free to PM me too.

No matter what, please don't give up. I know I have no knowledge of the specifics of your situation, but there are fantastic doctors and treatments out there and we'll help you find them.

Think of us as your new family.
