    so sorry alley......
    Dear Alley, So sorry about the lose of your mother, its really hard to deal with. My mother has been gone for 25 years to bone cancer, I still think of her every day. But please dont give up, your mom would not want you crying for her everyday. Think about the good times and the things that make you smile, not the cancer. And i also feel for what your going through with your partner, just be there for her, someone she can lean on. And keep looking for resourses that can help... Take Care

    Chemo will change her
    Chemo will change her emotionally while she is going through it. Call on a strength much bigger than we all are. That's what I do and it has helped unbelievably

    I don't understand
    I don't understand why there needs to be a catagory for gay and lesbians. I am straight but we are all people and cancer effects us all. We are all God's children.

    I second that!
    It makes me sad that lesbians and gays still feel so segregated from our communities. Having many lesbian friends, I can understand the need for them to connect with someone who will not judge. Perhaps one day in the future, this will no longer be the case.
