Hi Bonnie,

Welcome to OCF. As Patty stated this is a wonderful site with a lot of wonderful information. My treatment has been much different from your daughters so I'm afraid I cannot be of much help. I can to realte to numerous surgeries and how crappy that is though.

I'm sorry you have to go through recurrence after you have been through so much already. I'm sure that was devistaing news.

One thing I would suggest is a book for your daughter that I have found to be awesome. She is about my age so she may enjoy it. It's called "Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips" and there is another one "Crazy Sexy Cancer Survivor" The author is Kris Carr and she was diagnosed with a rare vascular cancer. She is late 20's early 30's when diagnosed also. I cannot say enough about the books and how I love them. I find them to be very inspiring.

Good luck to you.
Suzanne
