This article is by a free lance writer in the Huffington Post and I think you'll relate to it.  I know I did!  I posted the link to it.

 Let me know what you think of it.

    Great Article....

    I just read it, and so true, at least for me. I just googled Huffington Post "The things I wish I knew..."

    I printed it off to give to a friend who's sister was recently diagnosed and thought it may be good for a friend or care-giver to read.

    Thanks

    Excellent article -- and spot on!

    I wish I had this to refer to daily -- as my body, mind and soul changed during chemo treatments, and subsequent surgeries.

    Thank you,

    very helpful

    This article was sure hard to get through because so much of it chimes to the feelings that I have been dealing with over the past 18 months.  It has helped me make sense of what has happened and find the forgiveness that I need to use to get past the illness.

     

    Thank you

    You know when something is meant for you to see or read at the exact right moment, it's a gift.
