Thanks to EVERYBODY for their encouraging words.

It's not that I'm trying to be a 'superman' here by going it alone. I just flat don't know anybody where I live (only lived here a couple months now) and have no family anywhere close to me.

I do have a couple of co-workers that sort of live in the area. I'm hoping they can help me out with some of the days I may need a ride. The driving thing has me worried the most. I'm trying to plan this thing out (the best one can in this situation) and hoping I won't have to rely on someone getting me to and from treatments very often (if ever?). The Kellogg Cancer Care center I'm dealing with is close to work (5 miles at most)...but not close to home (about 30 miles). I'm hoping I can go into work early, leave early to go to treatment center and then go home as a routine.

I will find a 'niche' somewhere in one of the topics here other than the introduction page and keep everyone posted.

Thanks again for the help in advance
