Dinah has deeply impressed me as a very courageous woman in her life battle. Knowing that cancer that has mets to liver is really very difficult to cope with, I always wonder why Dinah has always been the one here welcoming and supporting others as if she herself were in remission while actually she was facing tremendous hardships. I asked her about this in our emails and her reply made me feel ashamed of myself. She told me her objective here was to give support and encouragement and to share what she knew rather than scaring others with her own sufferings. If we view her previous posts, we can only know very little about the progress of her illness. Instead we only see how she tried to support others with her positive and encouraging words. Dinah, you are indeed my role model and my constant thoughts go to you and your family.

Karen.
