OOOh Jim that was a bit sharp wink
For me Robs illness brought me a family i barely knew,friendship that will stay forever,and the loss of my fear of flying ,for which i will be eternally grateful Without that i wouldnt be where i am now .
On the downside it has made me totally intolerant of whingers,wimps people who think they are better than me,bullies, bigots,and careless professionals.
So i guess that means there are many ways having cancer affects us ,but for the most part once the fear,anger and shock dissapate,some good must come out of it. Musnt it?
