Signora V is in my thoughts, SV.

It's funny, last week was nine years to the day that my mother was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. She was diagnosed in May and passed away in September.

Springtime has been kind of bittersweet for me ever since, so the revival of this thread really touched me close to home. Cancer is a horrible thing for a family to endure, and having people to talk to about it really helps the surviving family members deal with the grief.

Again, you're BOTH in my thoughts and prayers.
