    Walking that path
    My husband had Hodgkin's disease when he was 24 and I was pregnant with our only child. That was in 1977--he was part of a protocol to try and develop the most effective chemo for Hodgkin's disease. Went through ten months of very tough chemo. Now 34 years later he has been diagnosed with stage four colon cancer. Pretty amazing that the two of you have ended up with the same cancers!

    No one should have to draw
    No one should have to draw this card twice. I guess you will have to show cancer it is messing with the wrong girl. Lisa

    We'll have to exchange notes once in awhile--let's see if we can beat it twice!
