    Hello

    I was in the opposite situation as you. I was the patient and my 67 year old mother was my primary caregiver. Although she never showed weakness, I still believe my colon cancer diagnosis, surgery and recovery period was a lot harder on her than it was on me. I will be wishing you and your mother the best. This is a wonderful group of people you have found. I wish I had found them at the beginning of of my journey.

    Wanted To Add My Welcome, Also

    I am the mother of another member, Johnnybegood. She has been bravely fighting the "beast" since 2008. This group will lift you up, cry with you, and offer a wealth of knowledge to help you and your Mom get through this. They are a blessing.

    To quote our friend Bruce, "Never, Ever Give Up".

    Luv,

    Wolfen
