I will say a prayer for you. I had cancer two years ago and had surgery, chemo and radiation. I am still in remission. Thanks for updating us.

Had surgery ten days ago. All my parts came out ok....lol. And they feel the chemo is working well. Once I am healed, chemo will continue. I did develop an infection, and my hospital stay had to be extended. I've been home since Wednesday, and I never missed a house so much. I'm having problems with weakness, and no appetite. Buy I'm resting a lot. Husband is being terrific. I have a nurse coming in twice a week, physical therapy coming in twice a week, and a neighbor who is available every day after 12:30 pm if I need anything while Greg is working. My brother just finished his radiation to shrink what's left of his tumor. His attitude is amazing. We got in the habit of going to a Chinese buffet together twice a month, and then shopping at a close out store. Can't wait to get back to that.
