Yep, it sure put a damper on my fun!!!<BR/><BR/>Surgery and chemo followed and, since I live near Washington, DC, I was able to be treated by some of the country's best. Now, tests show me to have NED, BUT...cancer is part of everything I am, and it forever part of my identity.<BR/><BR/>Keep fighting and keep writing.<BR/><BR/>PeggyPeggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856218790371651936noreply@blogger.com
