I am very thankful it is at such an early point and that they are moving ahead fairly quickly with treatment plan. You've been there before and you will get through this - I just know you will. I feel nothing but good karma around you. You are a positive person and that (plus us of course) will help you to do what you have to do to get rid of it - AGAIN.
I remember one doctor telling me that for some people, cancer can be a "chronic" illness. You get it - take care of it - and repeat.
How grateful I am that you were on top of this. We NEED you.
Hugs
