Rachel, I think that saying is great - we're ready for it to "GO"!!! Mom is in her fourth week of chemo/rad. treatments and I know things will start getting harder now. She's back down to 103 lbs. and not able to eat much b/c her mouth hurts too much. I need to encourage her to eat as much as possible and drink LOTS of water too. And you're right, this website is like one big sharing family. I love that so many people who have been through so much are willing to share their experiences, good and bad, to help others. And I love that they don't mind answering all my questions! It's good that your mom made you a medical proxy so you can get all the info when/if you want. My mom doesn't mind me coming with her to her appointments and/or treatments although I can't make it to as many as I'd like. I think both my parents actually like having me there. You take care and keep up the positive attitude!!! I will be keeping you in my prayers too.
