Another lurker/internet stranger chiming in to tell you what an inspiration you are. I can see in everyone's posts how much you mean to everyone on the board. As the daughter of a mom with cancer, I can also say that knowing is better in the long run. It was hard to hear those words, but it made coping different--in a better way. Hugs to you.
You can do this. You're one of the strongest women I've ever had the privilege of interacting with. They'll want to love and support you all they can and that will be good for all of you. Big hugs.
