I agree about lessening the load - I finally told him last week how concerned I was (but didn't really give him the full details) as I had been keeping that from him - and it did help. But I hate to burden him with my darkest fears as I hope and pray it's just my anxiety running away with me. - And Donna - wow - what great advice about not letting cancer steal another day from me - it IS a thief! That really made me feel better when I read it... made me want to fight back! - Jim - I have been following your story and thank you for offering your support while you are going through so much. Although I know you have some hard road ahead, I admire the way you are trying to deal with all of it while offering others support. You are one great guy! - I knew it would make me feel better to get some of this out of my internal thoughts and fears and it has - thanks to everyone here.... thinking positive thoughts for tomorrow and beyond.
