Don't worry what anyone thinks about something you have to or have already gone through. There is no part of this wild ride reserved for anything but warriors. Everyone that has dealt with this horrible disease is a true warrior and don't let anyone convince you differently. I hope all goes well and will be thinking special thoughts at exactly 2:00 pm Dallas time!
