I'm glad you survived all that TNNurse!

This confirms my belief that we're lucky to be living in the age of modern medicine and medical research. Our medical professionals (including you and your husband) are able to work daily miracles saving lives and ameliorating physical ailments. Never in human history has there been such a time as this! And yet here we are, still fighting so many diseases and still working hard to help people survive the ravages of cancer.

We've accomplished so much in medical research, and there's still so much more work to do. Remember when we all believed that cancer would be beaten in our lifetimes? Now I'm not so sure, cancer got both my parents and it still seems to be on the winning side. You are one of the lucky ones.
