j8ear. I am doing very well. I am otherwise healthy and I am approaching this very positively. I don't know, however, if I would feel them same way if it was a different type of cancer (one with a prognosis that is not as positive).
I was just going through the process of getting life insurance when all this happened - this will definately screw that up.
And I have to finally get a will done. I was also just about to do that as well. This will just speed up the process.
highthief - I don't want to tunr away any well wishes, I just wanted this thread to be a help to those of us going through this by being able to share our expereinces. Thanks though.
Bear Cub - I know what you mean about inconvenience. I already had to cancel a big month long trip the family was planning on taking this summer. The kids are really upset. They are old enough to be up set but still too young to completely understand the reasons why. We are postponing it. We can change the flights 3 times for the price it costs to cancel outright so if we need to moe it again we will.
noodle - I know that there are plently of people that will be able to add value to this thead for a second/third hand perspective but somethings are probably hard enough to releate even if they are experienced first hand. I think that we will welcome second/thrid hand accounts when they are relevant but I just did not want it to be the norm.
I think what I am really looking for is to be able to ask a question like "what does a bone marrow biopsty feel like" or "how did you feel after radiation or chemotherapy?". I hope eveyone understands what I am trying to get at.
spectre and Bear Cub, thanks for the advice.
