Yes a great post.janderson1964 said:Craig thanks for leading me
Craig thanks for leading me to this link. I decided to respond to this rather than the Big Billy post so it will bump up to the top. It is such a great post that I think it should be readily availble to read for any newcomers that might be interested. As always you seem to be experiencing so many of the same thoughts/emotions that I am experiencing. I think sometimes the decision making procees is one of the most brutal parts of fighting this disease since the "experts" have no clear answers.
You are so right about the price we have to pay for fighting. I keep thinking about all of the surgeries/chemo/scans, blood clots as a result and all of the pills that I am taking to help the side effects. I think I take more medications than my 87 year old father and I am still only 47. I keep thinking that if by some miracle I do beat this one day what other problems will arise or another type of cancer from all of the treatments/scans.
Thanks for
Yes a great post.
