One thing -- keep hope --- scared --- every time they did a resection I was scared --- every chemo session I was scared --- when nothing worked I was scared --- however, as frightened as I was, I simply would not give up and took all the courage I could muster and declared --- I will fight you "cancer" with every breath. I did not get mad at my Boss upstairs, never asked why me? I simply asked the Lord to give me strength, courage and a little peace now and then! Well here I am 7 years out from a radical --- cancer free. I certainly used the folks on this board to help me understand various things that were happening to me and it sincerely helped. I still ask questions just as did on Board a few days ago. Certainly sending positive thoughts and prayers
