  • No, it’s certainly not. And I found myself googling the symptoms of her new diagnosis to see if I had any of them…sigh… Of course I did not, but it never really ends, the worry or the unknown. BUT at least I’m here TO worry, right?! xoxo

  • I have to say this story really freaked me out. Ironicially she was breaking the news as I was sitting in the chair for my last round of chemo. As if there isn’t enough to worry about! She seems like a really strong, positive and amazing woman though – I’m putting my money on her.
