For me ,it was with a 24 year old Greek girl named Renee who had the same diagnosis of NonHodgkin's Lymphoma. I spoke with her at a Cancer Survivor's Day in June then saw her obituary in the paper a few months later. "Why did I make it and she didn't?" I asked. It was a strange feeling and one I didn't know what to do with at the time. Who would ever be able to understand? You strike at the heart of so many real issues here, Viki. And you are right, reaching out to others is the way through it all. Thanks for another great post.kathleen poolerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011121167730644229noreply@blogger.com
