I am sorry to hear that. I think if you can support her a little through this, and keep her involved in the process, she will come around to understanding and hopefully acceptance.

In hope you have another friend or family member to lean on until then. Otherwise we are available for you anytime.

Hang in there.

Not as well as I had hoped. She has remained in denial through this, but I think she has turned the corner. The information from Dr. Lamm has helped us see the disease and stage clearly for the first time. She went through a mad/rage/sad time Sunday.

So happy you are with Dr Lamm. I have never met him in person, but he has exchanged several emails with me, while I was going through BCG.
I like to refer to him as the "Grandfather of BCG". You are in very good hands :laugh:

Scot,

So thrilled to hear you got in with Dr. Lamm. I'm betting every penny he can get his hands on go into his research. The guy is incredible and has done more BCG research than anyone in the world!

That is very good news to hear Scot.

By the way how is Helen coping with all this?
