      I somehow knew that it would be good for your mom if you told her yourself. And I sense the relief you are feeling. Congrats!

      Saw you online and thought I would say hi. My radiation treatments for my breast cancer finished on 10-12-09. I still have some pain from the lung cancer surgery in July. My mother is 87 and just moved into an assisted living home, so there are things we have in common. Hope you are having a good day.
