Making fun of someone who died of cancer, has cancer, or potentially has cancer is NO JOKE!!!!!!

We don't have any history of cancer in my family. At least we didn't until just a few weeks ago when Mom was diagnosed with stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma. She had no symptoms until she went to see her doctor for fatigue. She's going through chemo now - and we are still waiting. Waiting to see if she goes into remission and, if so, how long that remission might last before a recurrence. Fortunately, Mom qualifies for Medicare and has found a good clinic that will accept Medicare assignment as full compensation for their services.

If I faced the same diagnosis I'd be liquidating everything I own, making final arrangements and looking for someplace abroad to seek treatment as I likely would be unable to secure treatment here. Unfortunately, there are others here who lack even that option.

Sending good warm thoughts your way and hoping for the best for you.
