Desiree',

What ever is written, said, or thought here is out of LOVE and human compassion. The comments here are not intended to hurt or to make you feel bad. Some of us here are a bit intense (ok sometimes really intense), but that intensity is directed entirely at the Cancer not at you, at all. The fact that the THING has gotten a piece of us (literally) causes us to want payback.

Truly I believe every one here is pulling for you and your family in thought, and prayer and you are doing a great job.
